            Bug ID: 62323
           Summary: Ignore imperfect table syntax, or warn loudly about it
                    getting surfaced if VEditing
           Product: Parsoid
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

This table
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancing_with_the_Stars_(U.S._TV_series)#Professional_partners
was broken.
This
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dancing_with_the_Stars_%28U.S._TV_series%29&diff=598301735&oldid=598141704
happened when the user just tried to add a wikilink (you can find it at the
very bottom of the diff).
This edit
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dancing_with_the_Stars_%28U.S._TV_series%29&diff=598390953&oldid=598363952
seems to have fixed the table
(https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AElitre_%28WMF%29%2FSandbox&diff=598393459&oldid=598393277
).

Users are not happy, and demand that "When a "bad" syntax doesn't break the
table while editing on wikitext it shouldn't break it while editing with VE
either.",
"Maybe there should be some sort of Edit Notice or similar when Parsoid detects
broken html."
