Summary: let empty metadata-elements pass through tidy
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
URL: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Vor
lagen/Werkstatt#Vorlage:Literatur
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: Page rendering
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: andbe...@web.de
The English and the German Wikipedia use the COinS microformat (see WP article)
to embed citation metadata. It specifies a span with class="Z3988" and a
title-parameter for the data. Usually the span is empty, but that does not work
with MediaWiki: Tidy removes them (when they have no id). There are some hacks,
but all of them include a element displayed on the screen, which shows its
(ugly) title when hovering about it.
I'm not sure how far a solution for this problem can go, but I propose tidy to
let pass any empty element which has at least one attribute. If that is not
desired, you may implement an exception matching exactly to this class
attribute.
