Thanks bawolf and Fæ for your suggestions.
The html style italic didn't work, but adding the italic template did work.
Regarding the data a bit dirty but it looks good.
Thanks again
Erik

I guess you could try putting it italic in html style (i.e. In the XML put <i>value</i> )
I'm not sure what the escaping that gwtoolset does is, so I have no idea if it will work, but worth a shot. Failing that, you could make a separate template and have the italics be added in the separate template.

It may be easiest to try {{italics|Your text here.}}
As you are embedding within xml, most characters will end up escaped, but I think brackets and pipes are okay as they don't interfere with xml standards.
Once you have something working, it may be worth adding the solution to the GWT manual.

Hi all,
I'm in the process of tuning the last details of the metadata mapping before loading images with the toolset.
One thing I can't find out is how to format text during the upload.
Some of the fields I want to add should be in italic.
I add the fields as {{Information field|name=Old Latin name|value=<value>}}.
I have tried to put '' before and after the <value> and tried $apos; and ' as well.
But all these are translated in wikimedia commons to {{Information field|name=Old Latin name|value=''<value>''}}
See f.i. https://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/File:Simia_satyrus_-_1700-1…
What should I do to correct this?
Cheers,
Erik
