Kalan explained it "<a>s may be used by spammers, by the way." A talk page gets added the text 'This page explains it <i>pretty well</i> <a href="http://example.com";>some webpage</a>' Currently, you see the html garbage, realise at first sight that it's a spambot and revert. If <a> were an accepted syntax, you would doubt if it's spam or a person trying to use wikisyntax. It's sad not being able to use the logical tag, but I oppose making valid the spammers messages. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
