Description Helder 2013-07-11 21:20:09 UTC 
Compare the result of the wikitext
#1
#
#
#
#
#6
in the following URLs:
1) https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/?oldid=36373624&veaction=edit
2) https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/?oldid=36373624&action=edit&preview=yes

Visual Editor show us a list with 6 elements, but MediaWiki will only display two items.

Maybe this is related to Tidy?

Comment 2 Gabriel Wicke 2013-07-12 03:19:44 UTC 
It would be difficult to sanely edit undisplayed list items. We would basically have to pretend those list items were never there. They would not be editable in the VE. 

While not impossible, even round-tripping of such collapsed list items would add a lot of special-case code.

So overall I am very doubtful that this would be worth it. IMO it is better to fix the wikitext, possibly with a bot. I'm closing this as wontfix for now. Please reopen if there are good reasons why correcting this with bots is not feasible.
