Description FT2 2013-07-09 21:44:48 UTC
Tried to add {{cn}} to an article, visual editor silently added NOWIKI../NOWIKI tags on saving, which had to be manually removed.

Unclear if this is the same or different as other <nowiki> issues on bugzilla
Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2013-07-09 21:50:15 UTC
Did you type the text "{{cn}}" into the editor directly? In that case this is correct behavior: we did what was needed to make the literal text "{{cn}}" appear.

To insert a template in VE you'll need to use the puzzle piece icon in the toolbar. Typing wikitext directly into the editor is deliberately not supported.
Comment 2 James Forrester 2013-07-09 22:32:11 UTC
Closing as INVALID (this is not a bug, this is exactly expected behaviour). Please re-open if we have mis-judged.
