Bug ID: 57619
Summary: VisualEditor:While inserting a reference with empty
content the error message that appears on the page
should be more appropriate and helpful
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Editing Tools
Assignee: rm...@wikimedia.org
Reporter: ryasm...@wikimedia.org
CC: jforres...@wikimedia.org, krinklem...@gmail.com,

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Steps to reproduce:
1.Click on the "Edit" button
2.Insert a reference with no content.
3.Save the page
Observed Result:
The error message that appears on the page is "Cite error: The opening <ref>
tag is malformed or has a bad name" where as
when you edit a reference (not first time insert) to an empty content the error
message that appears is "Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without
content in them"
The later one is more understandable for a user.So maybe we can change the
message to the later one.
