From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback#Bold_and_nowiki.2C_other_markup If you add a nowiki tag by itself, the angle brackets get escaped out (&lt;nowiki&gt;, or does just plain </nowiki> work here at Bugzilla?). If you add a nowiki tag plus some wikimarkup, like an asterisk at the start of a line or bold text, it doesn't. This results in unpaired tags, sometimes functional wikimarkup, and always unexpected results. Try this: * You need a </nowiki> tag '''here'''.
This is a Parsoid serializer bug: [subbu@earth tests] echo '* </nowiki> tag' | node parse --html2wt <nowiki>* </nowiki></nowiki> tag
