Has anyone else noticed something weird with the formatting of the page for Recluse's Victory? When I pull it up, it appears that all the links in the margins are shrunk down and that the entire content of the page appears as part of the header. The net result is that the side navigation box is pushed down to the bottom of the whole article.

Just checked and it appeared to be OK to me with Firefox - at first.

However, just to be thorough, I checked in IE and it's definitely not right in IE.

Going back and looking in Firefox, I can see a separation between the tabs at the top (page, discussion, edit, etc.) that isn't present in other articles.

Screenshots of the IE formatting follow:

Edit: OK, I'm stumped as to why it made a difference, but I appear to have been able to fix the formatting simply by putting a carriage return between the text of the last note and the Isolator BadgeBox template. Check to see if it looks OK now.

Yep, that appears to have fixed it. Thanks.

The BadgeBox template's output is wrapped in a <div>. Comparing the HTML emitted on the old versus the new version, it looks like Mediawiki threw out the opening <div> tag but kept the closing </div> tag. Thus, all prior <div>'s were being closed at the wrong places.

Smells like it may be a minor Mediawiki bug to me. I have no idea why it's doing it.
