Rm article-space HTML sidebar as a good portion isn't relevant to HTML usage in wiki text so it just adds noise and clutter
If I read Phabricator right, HTML Tidy has been gone for over 7 years. Also the exact library used for HTML sanitisation isn't really within the scope of this page afaik
Line 814:
{{details|mw:Extension:InputBox}}
{{tag|input|o}} is used to create [[Form (HTML)|forms]]. The {{xtag|inputbox}} extension tag is used to create a text box with a button.
 
== HTML Tidy ==
[[HTML Tidy]] is an outdated HTML4 library{{vague|upstream is now HTML5}} that is [[:mw:Parsing/Replacing Tidy|slated for removal]]. Tidy parses the MediaWiki output and cleans it up to increase the likelihood that valid HTML4 is rendered. For example, with Tidy enabled, {{tag|br|o}}, {{tag|br|c}}, {{tag|br/|o}}, {{tag|br.|o}} all rendered as {{tag|br|s}}. Tidy is not enabled for [[Help:MediaWiki namespace|MediaWiki interface pages]]. Tidy was never perfect and has been known to introduce errors.
