Description WhatamIdoing 2014-01-04 16:47:38 UTC
Intention:
Remove an empty section heading created in a previous edit (bug 59647) by VisualEditor

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select the empty section heading
2. Press the delete/backspace key


Actual Results:  
The line went away.  However, a nowiki tag remained, and the first item in the list of categories was added to the last paragraph on the page, instead of remaining on its own line.

Expected Results:  
The section heading would go away.  Zero nowiki tags would be present.  Content above and below would not get smashed into a single line.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Comment 1 James Forrester 2014-01-18 05:42:10 UTC
This is because <nowiki /s> (unlike <nowiki>s) are "meta" items in the DOM
rather than things VE can edit; merging with bug 56381.
