Help:Extension:Linter/zh

扩展可以识别页面内必须或者可以被修复的维基文本样式，并识别这些错误是什么、如何修复.

Special:LintErrors页面会根据类型给错误分组. 一些错误可以借助Special:Expandtemplates很容易地找到. 在此页面上，我们将根据问题的严重性相对于被这些问题阻止的目标对lint问题进行分类. 下面有关于这个的更多信息和讨论.

在Special:LintErrors页面底部有一个新功能“显示特定页面的所有linter错误”，允许编辑器在单个页面上获取所有错误的报告. 该报告包含分类和其他有用信息，每个错误都有一个可点击的链接，用于加载页面并高亮错误. (Note: if your source editor has syntax highlighting enabled, the highlighting may not work). By working from the end of the list upward, changes to the page will not invalidate the character offsets of earlier errors and is the recommended way to work if you are fixing all errors on a page.

我们将继续完善功能，消除噪声，修正错误，使短绒产出更多的可操作的，但当前的输出是准备用行动.

为什么修复，以及如何修复
Going forward, the parsing team plans to leverage the Linter extension to identify wikitext patterns:


 * 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 * that are no longer valid in HTML5 (ex: obsolete tags like center, font)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)

Not all of them need to be fixed promptly or even ever (depending on your tolerance for lint). Different goals are advanced by fixing different subsets of the above lint issues. We (the parsing team) will try to be transparent about these goals and will provide guidance about which goals are advanced by fixing which issues.

Simplified instructions are provided in the FAQ page.

目標：替换Tidy
As part of addressing technical debt in the parsing pipeline of MediaWiki, we replaced Tidy with a HTML5-based tool. However, doing so would have broken the rendering of a small subset of pages unless certain wikitext patterns were fixed. Specifically, issues found in the,  ,  ,  ,  , and   categories. In order to do a timely replacement of Tidy, we classified all these issues as high priority.

Goal: Improving compliance between rendering of the PHP parser and Parsoid
Right now, the HTML generated by the PHP parser is used for read views and the HTML generated by Parsoid is used by editing tools and the Android app among others. The parsing team, as one of its long-term objectives, wants to enable the use of Parsoid's output for both read views as well as for editing. Since Parsoid and RemexHTML are both HTML5-based tools, the lint categories that affect RemexHTML's rendering also affect Parsoid's rendering. We haven't yet identified any newer lint issues that affect Parsoid's rendering at this time, but will update this list as we identify any such.

Goal: HTML5 output compliance
This is a somewhat complex goal and we haven't yet arrived at an understanding about how important it is to pursue this goal or how far we should go with this. Additionally, it is not yet clear what mechanisms we wish to leverage towards this goal. For example, based on a bunch of discussions in different venues, User:Legoktm/HTML+MediaWiki outlines a proposal for handling the html5-deprecated big tag. In any case, fixing issues in the,   categories advance this goal. Given lack of clarity around this goal, we have accordingly marked the obsolete-tag category as a low-priority goal.

Goal: Clarifying editor intent
Getting markup right is hard. Errors inadvertently creep through. While the parser does its best in recovering from these errors, in many cases, what the parser does might not truly reflect the editor's original intent. Given that, we recommend that it is best to fix the issues identified here to clarify the editor's intention. Issues in the,  ,  ,   categories seem to affect this goal. Since this is a fairly important goal, we have marked most of them with medium priority. However, we have marked the missing-end-tag category with a low priority since in a vast majority of cases, the parser does seem to recover fairly accurately. Nevertheless, we recommend fixing whatever can be fixed without too much effort, if only to assist comprehension by other human editors and tools.

Goal: Clean markup
Getting markup right is hard. Even in the presence of errors, the parser does a fairly decent job in most cases in figuring out accurately how that piece of markup is supposed to render. But, in much the same way that typos, punctuation and minor grammatical errors can feel unsettling, some editors or those with a developer-mindset might find lint issues in these categories unsettling. We don't recommend spending an inordinate amount of time fixing these issues and, in many scenarios, bots might be able to fix these up as well. ,,   lint categories affect this goal.

When are lint errors for a page updated?
Currently, all lint categories are populated by errors identified by Parsoid while parsing a page. When a page (or, template transcluded on a page) is edited, ChangeProp requests a re-parse of that page from Parsoid, which will send the fresh results to the Linter extension.

This means that when a new category is introduced (or a correction is made to a previous category), it may take a while for all the results to be updated (if ever for pages that are rarely touched). Making a null edit would speed up the process individually. However, in T161556, we're exploring ways to reprocess all pages.

Should pages in X namespace (e.g. talk) be fixed
The priority is content namespaces. The rest largely depend on the wiki. A lot of pages are used as a sandbox, and as such deliberately contain errors.
