Help:Lint errors/stripped-tag

The stripped tag error is triggered when a closing tag or wikitext markup is inserted without its opening tag. For example:

Here, a closing " " tag is present, but an opening "  " tag is missing. This can be fixed by addition of opening " " tag inside a template or by removal of closing "  " tag in the template. So it should be like this (with correct tags):

This error can also appear in conjunction with a "missing end tag" error when there is a line break that is not supposed to be present, for example in the middle of a set of tags, or in a template that wraps a parameter in span tags. To fix both errors with a single edit, remove the line break or replace it with.

This error can sometimes appear when a table is not properly ended, either because it uses a template like col-end instead of, or because   is missing entirely.
