Bug ID: 64715
Summary: VisualEditor: Citation tool should not add empty
citation templates
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
URL: http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?title
=User:Whatamidoing_(WMF)/Sandbox&diff=91690&oldid=9168

OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Citation > Cite web
2. Don't add any information. Just click "Apply changes".
Result: <ref>{{Cite web|url = |title = |date = |accessdate = |website =
}}</ref>
That's pointless. If the fields are blank, don't add it (or remove it).
Steps to reproduce, part 2:
1. Citation > Cite web
2. Don't add any information. Delete all the parameters.
3. Click "Apply changes".
Result: <ref>{{Cite web}}</ref>
That's even more pointless. If there are no parameters, don't add it (or
remove it).
Reproducible: Didn't try
(The "invalid" parameter in that diff was manually created by me. I don't
think you can do anything to help the person adding invalid parameters, because
there's no way to differentiate between invalid parameter names and valid names
that don't happen to be defined in TemplateData.)
