Description:
Repro template

If I use HTML DT or DD tags in a template, they will be shown as cleartext.

e.g.
<dl>
<dt>'''A little thank you...'''</dt>
<dd>for {{{1}}}.</dd>
<dd>hugs, {{{2}}}</dd>
</dl>

will appear as
A little thank you...</dt>

for {{{1}}}.</dd> 
hugs, {{{2}}}</dd>

if used with
{{Thankyou|all your hard work|Joe}}

</dt> and </dd> got escaped into HTML entities:

Wikitext:

<dd>description</dd>
</dl>

Generates:

<dt>Topic</dt>
<dd>description</dd>
</dl>
</p>
