Proposed patch is insufficient; these permission errors are formatted in such a way that they *need to* be treated as single lines.

If there's only one, it's wrapped in a <div>; multiples are wrapped in <li>s in a <ul> bullet list.

If it were correct to allow block formatting (such as headers), then the whole function needs to be ripped out and totally rewritten.

That's probably a good idea then :D - since the few major wiki's I've checked all have headings, div's, tables and what not in MediaWiki:Blockedtext.

Though the cause of the rendering not happening might not be the cause of the (absence of a) linebreak, since on those few major wiki's it is just fine.

See also https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22806 where I have an issue that might be related.

The newline from the patch was added in r50976. Is that a possible fix?

Li-sung, thanks for the patch. Do you have time and interest in updating it and revising it in accordance with the suggestions you've received in comments?

The wanted newline is in the code now. Considering this issue closed.
