Going forward, the parsing team plans to leverage the Linter extension to identify wikitext patterns: Not all of them need to be fixed promptly or even ever (depending on your tolerance for lint).

 * that are erroneous (ex: bogus image options – usually caused by typos or because media option parsing in MediaWiki is fragile).
 * that are deprecated (ex: self-closing tags)
 * that can break because of changes to the parsing pipeline (ex: replacing Tidy with RemexHTML)
 * that are no longer valid in HTML5 (ex: obsolete tags like center, font)
 * that are potentially broken and can be misinterpreted by the parser compared to what the editor intended them to be (ex: unclosed HTML tags, misnested HTML tags)
