Cleanup instructions

Don't know which HTML tag is unwanted? Click the "Edit source" tab on the article page and search ({{key press|Ctrl|F}} in most web browsers) for the following. If you don't find any, feel free to remove the {{tl|cleanup HTML}} tag.

Prefer templates or better yet semantic tags to HTML tags per MOS:DEVIATIONS.

{{code|
|html}}
Should be {{code|
|html}}. If possible, use a blank line or list formatting. Other variations like {{code|
|html}}, {{code|
|html}}, and {{code|
|html}} can also be changed to {{code|
|wikitext}} so that syntax highlighting will work, but should only be done if making other changes.
