There is literally no difference between ] and ].

@PapiDimmi: You are incorrect. The former has no sortkey, so it sorts as normal in the category page (which is alphabetically). The latter has a sortkey, and the sortkey is the normal space, so it sorts in the space location of the category page. This is (almost?) always at the top of the category. --Izno (talk) 13:41, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

Either is valid Html5 (as is <br />). That edit is purely unnecessary, anywhere on the wiki. --Izno (talk) 17:01, 16 May 2017 (UTC)

@Izno: Hi.
Valid HTML is none of my concern.
Misplaced Pages syntax highlighter gadget does not work with <br> properly. It causes poor formatting that gives me a headache. I tend to cautiously fix it in other people's messages and nobody really minds.
But that's not just it. PapiDimmi has previously edit warred over this BR thing with another editor and got blocked. One of our admins clearly told him that WP:TPO does not forbid this slight change to other people's messages. PapiDimmi hasn't gotten the message. He has made life outside my user page slightly difficult for me.
Now, however, things are different. This is my talk page and I have 3RR impunity in it, as long as I stick to WP:TPO. And since an admin has already said that certain fix isn't against TPO, I am literally allowed to revert him until he violates 3RR and gets blocked again. This, however, isn't a combat announcement and I am not trying to bait this person. I really hope that this person see reason and stop this ownership-minded behavior. We are here in the spirit of constantly correcting each other; if this person cannot tolerate a plausible correction that does not really impact him, he clearly does not belong here.
Best regards,

I don't care about your conflict with him. The statements Valid HTML is none of my concern. and Misplaced Pages syntax highlighter gadget does not work with <br> properly. indicates that, actually, you should probably let the syntax highlighter gadget author know that he needs to provide for a correct HTML element. --Izno (talk) 18:43, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
This issue isn't so big as to require a bug report hoopla. Up until now, it was not an issue at all. You think if I jump through hoops for this non-cooperative person, my life gets any better? Throughout my whole career in Misplaced Pages, I have been making compromises with people. But they were disputes. This is a WP:JERK issue. —Codename Lisa (talk) 19:02, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
