Description

Hi, desktop and mobile views have a different behaviour when rendering "* + template returning an initial asterisk".

Examples:

The desktop view doesn't care of the asterisk returned from the template.
The mobile view instead renders as two lines, with an empty first line.

Why is different? Which is the correct behaviour? And when the wrong one (desktop or mobile) will be fixed? Thanks in advance.

Mentioned Here: T129375: mw-empty-elt shouldn't render as visible li
T89331: Replace HTML4 Tidy in MW parser with an equivalent HTML5 based tool

Which is the correct behaviour?

Desktop. This is related to T89331

MobileFrontend needs to add,

@Arlolra thanks! Is there a blocking task or should I ask someone for having mediawiki.raggett.css updated in the MobileFrontend ?

Looks like this should have been fixed in T129375

Yep this is fixed in master. Should be on enwiki Thursday
