Dear friends, Please take a look at http://pl.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml? title=Rasy_ps%C3%B3w&action=history and see two versions: (bież) (poprz) 23:47, 4 paź 2004 217.233.94.166 (Gangleri) (bież) (poprz) 23:45, 4 paź 2004 217.233.94.166 (Gangleri de:Hunderasse -> de:Liste der Hunderassen) The difference between them is only a "carriage return": The older one contains: <!--- no category here so far --->[[de:Liste der Hunderassen]] The newer one contains: <!--- no category here so far ---> [[de:Liste der Hunderassen]] I was surprised, that the older version shows only one language at "in other languages" and the newer seven. Regards Reinhardt
The problem appears to be that the other links were sandwiched between two comments, and the text on the same line as the first confused the parser into ignoring everything until after the second. A simplified test-case is: Intro <!--a comment-->deadly text invisible text <!--another comment--> Outro or even: Intro <!--a comment-->deadly text invisible text stray markup--> Outro In both cases, the page renders as "Intro Outro", the parser seemingly pairing the 1st "<!--" with the 2nd "-->"; note that without the second comment there at all, everything appears as you would expect. However, I notice that this appears to have been fixed in CVS, in that the test server doesn't show the same problem: http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comments displays as it should. So presumably, this will be fixed when 1.4 goes stable, but whether it's severe enough that the necessary change should be tracked down and backported, I'll leave to someone else to decide.
1.4 release imminent, resolving as fixed.
