Tests failing due to {{Taginfo entry|*}} in tables: template is a cell

[Famlam]

Currently tests for TagWatchFrViPofm.py are failing because of this table row:

|School:FR||school:FR || typo-tag || FR
{{Taginfo entry|School:FR}}

The reason for failing is because FR isn't detected is because the {{Taginfo entry|*}} template is defined as a cell, e.g. it seems to insert something like | 123 (if the taginfo count is 123). Hence, people editing the table omit the (normally) preceeding |.

Probably the safest way to deal with this (assuming we'll never actually need the count of taginfo via this template) is to just replace {{Taginfo entry|*}} by | or || using read_wiki_templates.

That a so frequent issue that we need to deal with it on the code ?

Can't we just fix the wiki ?

[Famlam]

It's a template on the osm wiki. I don't think we can delete the template? The wiki isn't broken, this is the intended behavior of the template (even though I dislike it)

Ok, I understand better. So, yes, I also think what you suggest is a good idea.
