--- Comment #11 from Mark Clements (HappyDog) <[email protected]> ---
This is not resolved, as far as I can see.

The original issue reported was:
* Most pages (e.g. Special:UncategorizedCategories) output
MediaWiki:Viewprevnext message as raw HTML.
* Some pages, such as Special:ListUsers escape this message before outputting
it.
* Any page that escapes the message should be updated to output it as raw HTML.
* The impetus for this is that on MediaWiki.org we want to apply styling to the
message and whilst this works on most pages, on the ListUsers page the <span>
that we wrap the output in is escaped, and so is visible on the page.

Since this bug was logged two things have happened:
1) It has been stated that this is intentional behaviour, and that the message
should always be escaped.
2) The test case which demonstrated the problem has been removed from
test.wikipedia.org.  (Here is a link to the deleted version:
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Viewprevnext&action=edit&oldid=28703).
 Splarka's comment in the edit history ("sick of people reporting this")
implies that this is a relatively common issue, and therefore something that
should be resolved one way or another.

So therefore we need to update the bug report as follows:
* Most pages (e.g. Special:UncategorizedCategories) output
MediaWiki:Viewprevnext message as raw HTML.
* Some pages, such as Special:ListUsers escape this message before outputting
it.
* Any page that *doesn't* escape this message should be updated so that it
does, for consistency (this may or may not have been done - hard to tell - and
possibly it should be a separate bug).
* Whenever MW outputs this message it should always be wrapped in a <span> tag
with an appropriate class, so that it is possible to style it in a meaningful
way.
