Forum:Valid XHTML

While trying to debug a template on my wiki, I realized that the tag order might be wrong so I should probably check if it was valid XHTML -- then I realized I wasn't even sure if the wiki was itself XHTML-compliant. So I went and checked, and on the front page alone there were more than a few errors. (See here for the validator.) Now I recognize that a lot of this I can't fix (like the google stuff), but some of these seem like bugs in the MediaWiki engine. Where is the proper place to report these problems? It would be great to get the site fully compliant, though probably unlikely. Surgo 04:28, December 12, 2009 (UTC)


 * Some of the errors are code in your main page that you can fix, but yes, most of them are errors made by Wikia (not MediaWiki) who really don't care much about those XHTML errors. Specially putting &lt;link&gt; elements in the body to add stylesheets. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 17:11, December 12, 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the information. Is Wikia accepting patches for these issues? Surgo 18:16, December 12, 2009 (UTC)


 * You can try it. The code is at http://trac.wikia-code.com/ and you can use Special:Contact or email at community$$@$$wikia.com for that --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 18:55, December 13, 2009 (UTC)


 * It seems that User:Meitar is doing several fixes to XHTML validation in the Wikia code. Great! --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 14:44, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
