--- Comment #22 from TMg <mr.h...@gmx.de> 2012-09-24 17:56:12 UTC --- (In reply to comment #20) > when it's done properly and without breaking things. It is not done properly. It breaks things. This is what this bug is about. See my example in the first comment. (In reply to comment #21) > You originally said "because you never can say how browsers were handling it > (and different browsers handle stuff differently)" I have not said that. > it's our responsibility to not output stuff that was removed. It was not removed. Every web browser in the world is able to render align attributes properly. With your current hack you are doing the job of the we browser and you are doing it bad. There is no need to replicate something that *every* web browser in the world can do by it's own. > it is also our responsibility to ensure that pages written in WikiText > continue to work Then do this please. Currently an unknown number of WikiText pages do not continue to work. > except when there is a bug we have to fix What bug? There was no bug with the align properties. It worked fine for decades and it will continue to work for decades. > Breaking every article What are you talking about? Absolutely nothing will break if you output the align attributes. > It's only broken if it looks broken. Again, what are you talking about? It *does* look broken. This is what this bug is about. > MediaWiki outputted incorrect markup. Then drop your support for this markup if you consider it "incorrect". Tell the people it will be dropped, give them some time and then drop it. Either this or continue to support it. But don't change the *meaning* of *my* code. > So yes, your templates were broken No, they were not. They worked fine and they will work find for the next decades. I tested them in every browser. There was no bug. *You* introduced a bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
