Issue #1
Bad formatting for list in blockquote
- Анон Михалыч
- I want to look into eyes of the man that is using <li> elements outside of the list =).
That's some exceptionally bad formatting.

- First of all - this page contains <li> elements outside of list. Using <li> elements without enclosing <ul> or <ol> element is not a valid html markup. The fact that this page looks normal in browser is only a matter of luck - browsers do their best to fix invalid markup on sites.
While this can be fixed (and it is fixed in the reporter's template) this is an isolated case of editor's mistake. It is not likely that there is more than one page with this kind of markup. Usually the site uses proper list markup (even within blockquote) which is processed properly, i.e.:

There are an infinite number of ways one can mess up an article's markup and it's not template's duty to fix these errors (it's impossible in general for obvious reasons). Template should process valid markup properly. Therefore i think that this issue should not have been accepted.
- Declined by admin
- We agree. This is a one-off case of invalid markup in the source and no template can possibly account for all the various ways one could mess up HTML code. The template is now restored.
- Type of issue
- IV page is missing essential content
