*Sorry about the lame summary*

This bug can probably have a better title.

A rather simple and innocent edit in the Hebrew Wikipedia introduced an element that had no reason to appear in the code. Here's the edit:
https://he.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D7%9B%D7%99%D7%91%D7%95%D7%A9%D7%99_%D7%90%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%A1%D7%A0%D7%93%D7%A8_%D7%94%D7%92%D7%93%D7%95%D7%9C_%D7%91%D7%90%D7%A1%D7%99%D7%94_%D7%94%D7%AA%D7%99%D7%9B%D7%95%D7%A0%D7%94&diff=15812721&oldid=15812716

The problematic element appears between the words "מטרות נוספות היו" and the colon.

The element was removed in the following edit:
https://he.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D7%9B%D7%99%D7%91%D7%95%D7%A9%D7%99_%D7%90%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%A1%D7%A0%D7%93%D7%A8_%D7%94%D7%92%D7%93%D7%95%D7%9C_%D7%91%D7%90%D7%A1%D7%99%D7%94_%D7%94%D7%AA%D7%99%D7%9B%D7%95%D7%A0%D7%94&diff=15887470&oldid=15878013

When editing it in the VisualEditor, the element appears as "Sorry, this element can only be edited in source mode for now."

When I showed this to David, he thought that it may be somewhat related to the "unicorn" patch, but it is not certain.
