Description

If I create a table and fill in a } in one cell, the resulting wiki code is |}. That should be |<nowiki>}</nowiki>

Yep - this is Parsoid only. <table><tr><td>}</td></tr></table> does not round-trip.

ssastry edited projects, added Parsoid-Edit-Support; removed Parsoid.

This has been fixed since. See test edit on mw.org.
Also, this command-line session:

[subbu@earth:~/work/wmf/parsoid] echo '<table><tr><td>}</td></tr></table>' | php bin/parse.php --html2wt
{|
|<nowiki>}</nowiki>
|}
