This is the list of errors that Check Uncyclopedia serves to fix.
The errors[edit | edit source]
- Template transclusion contains "Template:" - low priority
- Incorrent HTML syntax - high priority - Reason: Examples include
<br></br>
instead of<br/>
, which are deprecated and invalid. - Use of
<a>
- medium priority - Reason:<a>
does not work in wikitext. These should generally be replaced with [] or [[]] syntax, but note that many users of this syntax are engaged in spambottery. - Unclosed HTML comment - high priority - Reason: This means
<!--
's that aren't closed. This may inadvertently hide sentences, or even entire sections, and as such is quite important to fix. - Unclosed MediaWiki extension tags - high priority - Reason: This is
<math>
,<syntaxhighlight>
, and<code>
tags that were left unclosed. - Improper use of HTML syntax - low priority - Reason: This is use of
<b>
in place of '''; fixing this is considered a "cosmetic" task, because it only makes the wikitext look more "pretty", as opposed to actually meaning anything. - Improper URL syntax - high priority - Reason: This is used for external links that don't have an http:// or https:// in them, outside of the
{{URL}}
template. - [[Page|Page]] - low priority - Reason: This refers to pages who have links that pipe to themselves. This generally shouldn't need to be fixed, unless you want to increase your edit count.
