Description James Forrester 2013-06-18 15:19:16 UTC 
MW outputs &#<!-- foo -->61; or &#<!-- 

foo
bar

-->61; as if it were &#61; (and so an "=" sign).
Comment 1 Gabriel Wicke 2013-06-18 15:25:34 UTC 
The PHP parser strips comments completely, we need to preserve them. We don't plan to support comments in the middle of HTML entities (as in this case) or things like [<!-- look at this -->[link]]. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/limitations#Comments_in_arbitrary_places.
