Deprecated syntax

This page briefly summarizes WoaS deprecated syntax; the below deprecated syntax rules are still supported (unless otherwise specified), but you are invited to no more use them since in version 1.x they will probably be removed.

BAD:
+ unordered lists with + sign instead of asterisk
+ unordered lists with + sign

Only asterisk lists are parsed:
GOOD:
* unordered element 1
* unordered element 2

BAD:
! headers using the exclamation mark
GOOD:
= header which uses the equal sign

BAD:
<pre /> tags with nowiki meaning. Now <pre /> tags have no special meaning and are treated
as any other XHTML tag

GOOD:
You should use { {{nowiki}} } blocks to achieve the same result

BAD:
---
horizontal rulers using only 3 hyphens

GOOD:
----
You are invited to use at least 4 hyphens

BAD:
[[Tags::some tag, some other tag]] and [[Tag::some tag]] is deprecated

GOOD:
In favor of [[Tags::some tag|other tag|another tag]]

BAD:
<script> and </script>

GOOD:
<script type="text/javascript"> and </script>
