ContentTranslation added unnecessary empty <span></span> tags to a translation in https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pr%C3%A9sident_de_l%27Union_des_r%C3%A9publiques_socialistes_sovi%C3%A9tiques&action=edit&oldid=118759797
Empty tags are not needed at all and can be cleaned up somehow.
In this particular case they were also inside double apostrophes ''<span></span>'', which are not necessary either.
