You seem to be talking about something utterly unrelated to this thread... The only XML under discussion here is an internal back-end representation of template metadata to drive a sane template invocation user-interface: * field names and descriptions (localizable) * field types/validation info * field grouping and optional/required info * other documentation & display info This would not be exposed to editors, viewers or readers; nor is it in any way related to whether, how, or when we might some day alter or replace wiki markup. -- brion _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
