Description:
HTML comments will not interfere with the working of a ParserFunction, but they will apparently prevent it from substituting, causing nothing to appear on the page at all, at least with #switch. I discovered this while working to get [[en:wikt:fr-def-verbform]] to substitute.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
It also affects https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Casenav/closed for ArbCom on the English Wikipedia.
See https://test2.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Dreamy_Jazz/sandbox/casenav/test&action=history for a quick test I ran. It would be good if this would be fixed soon, as it currently does not allow commenting in the switch for the casenav data.
