Description Jean-Sébastien Girard 2007-09-06 15:56:29 UTC HTML comments will not interfere with the working of a ParserFunction, but they will apparently prevent it from substituting, causing nothing to appear on the page at all, at least with #switch. I discovered this while working to get [[en:wikt:fr-def-verbform]] to substitute.
