A very common chess template on many Wikipedias recommends using '|=' , and most instances of chess boards use this syntax https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Chess_diagram#Standard_diagram https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Schachbrett#Standarddiagramm On German Wikipedia, editing the template strips the '=' signs. This article is on the parsoid topfails https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lasker?veaction=edit http://parsoid.wmflabs.org:8001/topfails/1 There are 900 uses of these chess templates on German Wikipedia. https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spezial:Linkliste/Vorlage:Schachbrett&limit=750 https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spezial:Linkliste/Vorlage:Schachbrett-klein&limit=115 A few more of https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Schachbrett-10x10 https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Schachbrett-8x10 https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Schachbrett-Chaturanga The syntax is used on many other WPs, incl. eswp, frwp, plwp and ruwp https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantilla:Diagrama_de_ajedrez#Diagrama_est.C3.A1ndar https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Diagramme_d%27%C3%A9checs https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre_Alekhine https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szablon:SzachyDiagram https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A8%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BD:%D0%A8%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%B0%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%BC%D0%B0 On English, the VE UI can go into massive layout problems, but the UI issues may all be due to the Parsoid issue. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Defence?veaction=edit The number of uses on enwp appears to be in the same ballpark as dewp https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Chess_diagram&limit=900
An alternative 'pretty' syntax that doesnt cause breakages is: https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Edward_Lasker&diff=120835751&oldid=120194113 The html comments are visible in the parameters of the template dialog, but it stops the dirty diffs if this |= syntax is not desirable.
Hmm .. strange. When I copied both forms of the syntax into a file and parse it with Parsoid, the html renders just fine. Curious why it breaks in VE however. Verifiable here: http://parsoid.wmflabs.org/_wikitext/ Paste this there and scroll down past the literal html and you'll see this rendered correctly there. ------------------------------------------------ {{Infobox chess opening |openingname = French Defence |image = {{Chess diagram|= | | |= |rd|nd|bd|qd|kd|bd|nd|rd|= |pd|pd|pd|pd| |pd|pd|pd|= | | | | |pd|__|__|__|= | | |__| |__|__|__|__|= | | |__| |pl|__|__|__|= | | |__|__|__|__|__|__|= |pl|pl|pl|pl|__|pl|pl|pl|= |rl|nl|bl|ql|kl|bl|nl|rl|= | }} |moves=1.e4 e6 |ECO=C00–C19 |birth = |nameorigin = London vs. Paris correspondence match (1834–36) |parentopening = [[King's Pawn Game]] |AKA = |chessgid=39913&move=2&moves=e4.e6&nodes=21720.39913 }} ------------------------------------------------
Moving to visual editor in case there is something about the Parsoid output that is causing broken layout in the "|=" form of chess-board syntax. Please assign to Parsoid if there is a bug here in our output.
