Description Nicolas Bros CLA 2011-09-12 07:48:04 EDT 
With this code:
<code>
<nowiki>
<p>
This is some HTML content
</p></nowiki>
</code>

I want to protect the <p> so that it is not handled as an html tag but instead displayed as-is. So I use a <nowiki> tag (which I don't want to appear) to protect the content. 

This is a tricky case, and I'm not sure the spec describes this case. But the "real" MediaWiki engine gives the result I expect: the <p> tag appears in the output, and the <nowiki> tag does not.

Whereas the exact opposite happens with the Mylyn wikitext conversion : the <nowiki> tag appears, and the <p> tag does not.
