: misuse as indent..

Any suggestions on how to lint for this?

I've noted that it seems to be used here on Wikisource sometimes.. and we have a left-margin template for doing indents... (As well as {{ti}}, {{hi}} etc... ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 22:06, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

Probably the only way to find this is for Extension:Linter or similar HTML transform to identify definition list items without a definition list term, which is somewhere in the realm of a task request for Linter to check validity of the DOM in addition to its current support for issues identified in the parsing algorithm. Could use a task, and I've mentioned the idea in the task request to add support for some particular table elements.

The more specific problem related to multiline things falling out of list items is already linted for to some degree. Izno (talk) 22:08, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

So it would be looking for an HTML<DD>...</DD> inside an <DL>...</DL> without an <DT>...</DT> ? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 22:11, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

Would probably get us most of the way. Izno (talk) 22:12, 6 December 2022 (UTC)

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T324617 if interested. My specfic use-case is content namespaces on English Wikisource. But it could be extended to other wikis assuming the appropriate replacement templates exist locally on those wikis.
