--- Comment #6 from Gadget850 <[email protected]> ---
If the last </ref> was missing, then the reference list markup would get eaten
and it would trigger 'MediaWiki:Cite error refs without references'. On enwiki,
this would put the page into an error category and it would be fixed.

Bug 66860 added the automatic reference list, so 'MediaWiki:Cite error refs
without references' is never triggered. Instead, the unclosed <ref> eats the
following content and includes it in the last rendered reference.

Example:

<ref>1

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Bu if the reference list markup exists, then the last reference is generated
twice and the the reference list markup is exposed.

Example:

<ref>1

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. 

<references />

There may be other instances where this renders differently.
