That is usually caused by nesting <ul> or <ol> inside a <p>.  A list
should not be nested in a paragraph, or the validator will complain.

I corrected such nesting in many places. Anyway if a browser wants to
end <p> before <ul>, it will end it (</p> tag in a paragraph can be
omitted in HTML), and </p> will be ignored.
