Description Gnu1742 2007-05-06 10:21:45 UTC 
If you put the <references /> somewhere in an article, but have no <ref>-s
defined in the article, an empty <ol class='references'></ol> is generated.
According to the xhtml-specs, an ol must not be empty. Cite should state whether
there are Listitems to add or not. In the latter case, it should simply not add
the ol to the rendered Page.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 209 ***
Comment 3 Philippe Verdy 2007-05-07 20:26:23 UTC 
Note that this bug and bug#209 are both marked as mutual duplicate of each other;
This bug was closed, and should not have been reopened because bug #209 is the tracking buglist related to all 
bugs linked to strict XHTML conformance including validation with schemas and avoidance of deprecated legacy 
elements and attributes.
please close again this one...
Comment 4 Rob Church 2007-05-07 21:21:27 UTC 
No, this bug is not a duplicate of bug 209. Bug 209 is a tracking bug, used to
keep track of bugs regarding XHTML compliance. I entered the bug number in the
wrong box when adding a dependence, and later corrected the mistake.
Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2007-05-08 21:21:11 UTC 
Fixed in r22012; just returning empty if there are no <ref>s seems most sensible.
