From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'll list HTML tags and CSS styles that work in Wikipedia (and don't work) on this page, for convenience. They'll be added at my leisure, so don't expect it to be comprehensive.

Tags that work: HTML[edit]

Tag(s)ExampleComments
<table> and related tagsThe table this is displayed in!Yes, I know that this OBVIOUSLY has to be valid, since I'm using a table - but hey, may as well add it, right? Note: listed in Wikipedia editing help
<b> <i> <u> <strike>bold, italic, underline, strikeUseful tags. Of course, for the first two, you could just use double and triple apostrophes instead. Note: listed in Wikipedia editing help


Tags that don't work: HTML[edit]

Tag(s)DescriptionComments
<img src>Image display tagProbably a good thing, since you can freely upload images, and you're not supposed to use images from off-server.
<a href>Link tagInteresting, considering <b> and <i> are allowed, and off-site linking is allowed... I think it's <a> itself that caused it not to be supported, or that they never bothered adding this.
