Description Nicolas Bros CLA 2011-02-18 05:03:45 EST 
WikiText seems to have a bug in the handling of multiline nested templates.
Each of our wiki pages start with something like:

{{MoDiscoTabs|ModelBrowser|
 {{MoDiscoTab|ModelBrowser|Documentation|0.7}}{{MoDiscoTab|ModelBrowser|Documentation|0.8}}{{MoDiscoTab|ModelBrowser|Documentation|0.9}}{{MoDiscoTab|ModelBrowser|Architecture|}}
}}

(notice the closing "}}" on the last line)

and each of our generated Eclipse documentation pages start with a spurious "}}" string.

Thanks for the bug -- indeed, nested templates don't work correctly, and templates only work correctly if they're on a single line.

Taking the liberty of changing title because I just entered a duplicate but missed this one because of the title.
Comment 5 John Arthorne CLA 2011-05-09 16:27:05 EDT 
Increased severity. We are evaluating using wikitext for the Orion project, but lack of support for multi-line templates is a big problem for us.
Comment 6 Jeremie Bresson CLA 2012-10-17 14:19:24 EDT 
The improvements proposed in Bug 387880 address this issue.
Comment 7 David Green CLA 2013-08-02 12:43:33 EDT 
Closed as part of backlog clean-up.  Please re-open if you'd like to see this revisited, perhaps with a contribution.
