::::I literally don't understand this argument at all because the '''rendered''' Wikimedia page from a list with asterisks has exactly the form <nowiki><ul><li>...</li><li></nowiki>... So which one is used in the wikitext can't possibly have an effect on how it renders in IE6 or whatever. It's exactly the same once it's rendered and is only different when editing the source. —[[User:Keenan Pepper|Keenan Pepper]] ([[User talk:Keenan Pepper|talk]]) 14:42, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

:::::: This proves nothing. Try to view normal Wikipedia pages (I just did) and you'll see the same effect. The problem seems to be caused by the https protocol that is not supported in IE before version 9 (just guessing). --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 16:18, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
