Hello Nico, Thanks again for bringing this up. Most of the tags and syntax related issues are already in phabricator[1] and we are actively monitoring the remaining issues. Recently we have adjusted the configuration of our parsing engine to produce much clean wikitext[2]. This represents a general improvement in this area, but there are still specific issues to be solved. For our upcoming release cycle, stability and reliability will be key areas we plan to work on. We have been collecting the list of blocking bugs from the community that will move the tool to its next level of maturity [3], and producing clean wikitext is also an important area as the tool gets exposed to a wider audience. For this reason, we highly appreciate all reports about tag related failures that makes us aware of the possible anomalies. The tool is in active development and despite the issues reported, we still think that the overall balance of the content contributed is still positive. From our observation, users translating content with Content Translation are normally editing the articles after creation to improve them, and the deletion ratio is much lower compared to that of articles created from scratch. The purpose of the tool is to facilitate the creation of those first versions to be later evolved. Disabling the tool would also impact the workflow of many users who chose to use Content Translation because it saves them time.

It’s currently one of the most intriguing problems that we are investigating. Please feel free to report the cases from Romanian Wikipedia in this ticket: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T116908 . The cause for the failures have been rather inconsistent and finding the appropriate solution remains elusive at the moment. In the coming weeks, we hope to narrow things down through extensive logging and analysis.
