inappropriate use of html markup in cs1|2 templates

With this edit, Editor Anomalocaris has improperly added html markup to |title= in this {{cite news}} template:

{{cite news |date=13 September 2013 |url=https://news.walla.co.il/item/2677526 |<!--script-title is proper but it messes up mixtures of Hebrew and digits for Firefox users-->title=<bdi lang="he" dir="rtl">40 שנה לאחור: היכן היו אז, המנהיגים של היום?</bdi>|language=he |trans-title=40 years ago: where were the leaders of today? |publisher=[[Walla!]]}}

cs1|2 templates produce metadata for use by reference management software. Adding extraneous html markup to parameter values contaminates that metadata. The metadata for this citation as Editor Anomalocaris has written it contains this (emphasis added and a random number of the actual title characters removed for clarity):

&rft.atitle=%3Cbdi+lang%3D%22he%22+dir%3D%22rtl%22%3E40+%D7%A9%D7%A0%D7%94+%D7%9C%D7%90%D7%97%D7%95%D7%A8%3A+...+%D7%A9%D7%9C+%D7%94%D7%99%D7%95%D7%9D%3F%3C%2Fbdi%3E
– spaces are +, non-Latin UTF-8 characters and reserved characters (<, /, >, etc) are percent encoded

The <bdi lang="he" dir="rtl">...</bdi> tags do not belong in |title= nor do their percent-encoded counterparts belong in the metadata.

cs1|2 has a parameter that is specifically designed for non-Latin scripts: |script-title=. That parameter should be used with Hebrew-script titles. The claim from the edit summary that script-title with rtl languages and digits looks terrible in Firefox... may be indicative of a failing in Firefox for which cs1|2 should not be held accountable. cs1|2 wraps any value assigned to |script-title= in <bdi lang="xx">...</bdi> tags (where xx is the language ISO 639-1 code; in this case he). It does not set the dir= attribute because, for <bdi>, the default is auto which allows the browser to decide for itself what to do with the tag contents.

The remainder of the edit summary, ... and substituting title simply adds harmless quote marks, as explained above is not true.

The cs1|2 templates are responsible for the rendering and presentation of citation elements. Editors should not interfere with that by including extraneous markup. Instead of adding markup that 'fixes' one thing but 'breaks' another, the correct solution is to fix the template (if it can be shown that it is broken), or, perhaps in this case, to fix the browser, or to not use the cs1|2 templates – they are after all, general purpose templates that are great for the majority of en.wiki's citation needs but are not and will not be perfect for every use case.

Is this the israeli national anthem?

Means you are very angry, and your thoughts are very old - but the Tora or the old testament does not give a clue how to solve the current situation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.230.4.167 (talk) 00:31, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
