'Contents' section anomaly[edit source]

This user is new to Wikiversity and needs help.

I noticed that 2nd item/section-link of Help:Wikitext quick reference's 'Contents' section which should read...

2 Just show what I typed

...is displaying...

2 Section Heading Embed File [[File:Button image.png]] File link [[Media:Button media.png]] Media:Button media.png Mathematical Formulas (LaTeX) <math>2^3</math> Ignore wiki markup <nowiki><math>2^3</math> Signature Thanks guys --~~~~ Thanks guys --Karl Wick 07:46, 27 November 2005 (UTC) Horizontal line ---- Page Redirect #redirect Help:Editing#Basic text formatting Help:Editing#Basic text formatting For a list of HTML tags that are allowed, see HTML in wikitext. However, you should avoid HTML in favor of Wiki markup whenever possible. Just show what I typed</nowiki>

...as a hyperlink.

Unraveling this exceeds my current skills. Help from a more experienced/knowledgable editor/admin would be great.

Hear hear! Apparently, this has partly to do with failure of the nowiki tag on the demo of heading markup, but the rest of it is beyond me, likewise how to fix it.--Alkhowarizmi (discusscontribs) 08:22, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Now corrected. Note that these pages are not regularly monitored. That's why the issue has remained for more than three years, and likely much longer. Please ask questions about Wikiversity in the Colloquium for a faster response. -- Dave Braunschweig (discusscontribs) 13:03, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
