User "Brion VIBBER" posted a comment on MediaWiki.r86061. Full URL: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/86061#c17771 Commit summary:
Allow people to use ' entity (sinqle quote character: ') in wikitext. It probably wasn't included originally, as its not part of html4, but was introduced in XML/XHTML1. Since we do all sorts of weird stuff with ' characters (italic/bold) its probably good to allow lowly users to have an easy to remember way of escaping it. There's also a whole bunch of entities in html5 that we should maybe consider decoding as well. Comment: The comment says that apos is from XHTML 1 and higher so that seems fine. I added a more specific comment on that line, and a parser test case to confirm that apos doesn't make it to output, in r89681. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
