Category:Pages using invalid self-closed HTML tags

This is an administration category. It is used for administration of the Festipedia project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than content. Do not include this category in content categories.

This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set.

This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates.

Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty!
This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

Pages in this category contain invalid self-closed HTML tags, such as , <div/>, , , and <td/>. (Valid tags defined in the HTML5 specification, like , <hr/>, and , do not cause this error.)^[1]^[2]. The behavior of these invalid tags will change soon, to be consistent with the HTML5 specification, so their use in wikitext is deprecated.

Pages are also automatically placed in this category by malformed tags like </center/>, which should usually be changed to </center> (remove the final slash); or by malformed constructs like <s>...<s/>, which should usually be changed to <s>...</s> (move the slash from end to beginning of the closing tag).

Where an invalid  or  (with no attributes such as id= or class=) is used as a spacer to prevent wikicode from rendering in example code, like {{templatename}}, either replace  with <nowiki /> for valid code that achieves the same effect, or use a template-linking template such as {{tl}} or {{tlx}}, as in {{tlx|templatename}}.

Some templates include an anchor |id= parameter. When fixing self-closed <div id="..."/> and  tags that appear immediately before such templates, consider moving the anchor text from the HTML tag to inside the template and removing the now-unneeded tag.

If a given page in this category does not appear to have any invalid self-closed tags, it may be transcluding a page or template that does.

This category is populated based on the parameter at MediaWiki:Deprecated-self-close-category.

Notes[edit]

^ The full list of valid self-closing tags in HTML5 is: area, base, br, col, embed, hr, img, input, keygen, link, meta, param, source, track, and wbr. However, only , <hr/>, and are allowed through the parser. The HTML pre tag is superseded by the MediaWiki XML pre tag.
^ Some MediaWiki XML tags are also valid when self-closed, like <nowiki/> and <pre/>, as well as some extension tags like <ref/> and <references/>
