As reported on the German-language Wikipedia's feedback page, the VisualEditor breaks the table layout if a row is removed from a table where a column spans several rows via rowspan.
Take the following example (test page):
{| class="wikitable" ! rowspan="3" |Big span | rowspan="3" |Big span |{{Version |p |60.5}} Smallest |- |{{Version |p |60.6}} Smaller |- |{{Version |p |60.7}} Small |}
This results in a table like this:
Now, use the VisualEditor to remove the first row (diff) and publish changes. The result is the following source code
{| class="wikitable" |- ! rowspan="2" |Big span | rowspan="2" |Big span|{{Version|p|60.6}} Smaller |- |{{Version |p |60.7}} Small |}
which is rendered as
The correct source code is (diff)
{| class="wikitable" |- ! rowspan="2" |Big span | rowspan="2" |Big span |{{Version|p|60.6}} Smaller |- |{{Version |p |60.7}} Small |}
which renders as
