Description mossroy (reporter) 2010-10-16 21:38:51 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION:
0.4.1

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
open an article that contains a timeline. For example in the French dump dated
2010-08-02 : http://127.0.0.1:8080/wiki/fr/Population_mondiale

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
At best, it would display a beautiful image like on wikipedia
At least, it should not display XML code

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
Looks like the source "code" of the timeline. I suppose it's the original XML
code, incorrectly interpreted.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
none

OTHER COMMENTS:
I suppose it might be difficult to generate an image like on the original
wikipedia page.

Another example, in the latest English dump (dated 2010-06-22) :
http://127.0.0.1:8080/wiki/en/Debian#Release_history should display a beautiful
graph like in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian#Release_history

Comment 2 christian 2010-10-18 21:29:39 UTC

The timeline extension has been added to the rederer some time ago. It seems
that the French and English archives (dumps) are too old for that feature, the
newest archive, i.e. it 2010-09-02 already contains it but it seems buggy.

Comment 3 christian 2010-10-19 00:05:34 UTC

New archives should contain correctly renderend timelines.
