Lint errors

[edit]

To correct

Please replace the project page with Wiktionary:Word of the day/Nominations/Sandbox.

Note that the entry variadic has an <s> tag improperly closed with another <s> instead of </s>, and as a result, under the new linter software, every line following variadic is struck, even though this was neither the intent nor the appearance of those lines under the old linter software. To see this, edit the sandbox page with

https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Wiktionary:Word_of_the_day/Nominations/Sandbox&action=parsermigration-edit

and on the variadic entry, remove the slash from </s> and click Show preview. Then search for variadic and see how on the right ("New"), every line after variadic is struck, while on the left, not so. Don't save the edit; this is just to help understand the issue. Replacing the project page with the sandbox will fix this problem and restore the appearance of the page to what the users intended and had seen until now.

Done Done. @Anomalocaris: in future, why not just make the correction yourself? — SGconlaw (talk) 02:53, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
SGconlaw: Thanks! At the time, the page was protected and only admins could edit it. —Anomalocaris (talk) 03:26, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Funny, someone must have unprotected it between the time you posted your message and when I looked at it and edited it today. — SGconlaw (talk) 03:28, 6 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
