HTML list tags with mediawiki input.

[roccomoretti]

I'm seeing odd behavior with html-tagged lists with mediawiki input.

First off, the mediawiki software has no problems with the following (test for yourself at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sandbox )

Start
<ol>
<li>X
<li>Y
<li>Z
</ol>
Middle
<ul>
<li>A
<li>B
<li>C
</ul>
End

However using pandoc to convert to markdown not only leaves the unmatched <li> tags, it also strips just the <ol> and <ul> tags, leaving the </ol> and </ul> tags dangling.

More importantly, though, even when the unmatched <li> tags are taken care of

Start
<ol>
<li>X</li>
<li>Y</li>
<li>Z</li>
</ol>
Middle
<ul>
<li>A</li>
<li>B</li>
<li>C</li>
</ul>
End

You do not get one ordered list and one unordered list in markdown, but instead have two ordered lists.

Start

1.  X
2.  Y
3.  Z

Middle

1.  A
2.  B
3.  C

End
