Message documentation filled with senseless content
What is purpose to fill message documentation with message text itself or message name with <> signs?
Need example URLs. I think I know what you mean, but want to be certain. If it's the same thing, it's a MediaWiki feature/bug, depending on how you look at it :).
I think he means the editing area. I have the same issue for Lower Sorbian (but not for Upper Sorbian). This issue occurs in normal editing mode only, in ajax editing area it doesn't occur. The name of the message is inserted within angle brackets which are displayed as HTML entities, e.g:
<revreview-pending-basic> for message revreview-pending-basic
It seems that this appears instead of the text of the fallback language.
See MediaWiki:Wikiastats sort list size/qqq as example.
It looks stupid to me, too. This was introduced in mwr:64178 and I took out a little piece of it in a live hack to restore the old behaviour pending discussion on IRC:
+ $message = '<' . htmlspecialchars( $key ) . '>';
+ } else
