            Bug ID: 55810
           Summary: When a template is completely empty it is invisible in
                    CE
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

This bug came about from a misspelled parameter in a template on hewiki. The
template returned a completely empty result when the required parameter was
invalid, and there was no place to hover above the template and access the
transclusion icon to change or remove it.

To replicate:
* Go to
https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%AA%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%AA:Mooeypoo/%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%9A_%D7%97%D7%96%D7%95%D7%AA%D7%99/%D7%91%D7%93%D7%99%D7%A7%D7%95%D7%AA_%D7%95%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%97%D7%A7%D7%99%D7%9D?veaction=edit
* Click on transclusion, and add the template "ערך מורחב"
* Add parameter with the name "1"
* Add value to the parameter (invalid value) - "[[blah]]"
* Apply and click anywhere else on the document to clear the selection - the
template vanished. However, it was added to the wikitext and is in the page
after save, but there's no way to access it from VisualEditor and remove it (or
edit it)

I have an idea on how to solve that, but I am not sure if the issue isn't
deeper.
