- Text passage starting - "ADVANCE OF SETTLEMENT SINCE THE JARDINE EXPEDITION. AIM OF HANN'S EXPEDITION." should be a continuious span up to the colsing at "..WROTHAM PARK CATTLE STATION. NOLAN CREEK. CAMP 13. MITCHELL RIVER. CAMP 14. "
- The input wikitext is:
{{hi|{{smaller|ADVANCE OF SETTLEMENT SINCE THE JARDINE EXPEDITION. AIM OF HANN'S EXPEDITION.

`What happens?:
A spurious P block is inserted breaking the span of content. (apparently because of line-feeds which are not collapsed)

What should have happened instead?:
The text should be rendered as a continuous span, WITHOUT a spurious P tag being inserted.
Or
The Linter extension should have generated a warning about the line-feeds inside SPAN based content, so they can be removed.
