Hi everybody,
I try to include a simple number from another page. I have all
possibilities how the number is provided. I tried to use the
Extension:RSS for including, but sadly this extension is adding a <p>
tags around the transclusion of the RSS feed.
You can see one of my tries at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Dennisroczek (the number 121
which has a few newlines around the 121).
Additional you can see my test template which transcludes the number
121. As you can see in the wiki code (and in the history) I tried to
experiment a few with CSS.

Do you have to use RSS?
What I would do (also for the benefits of caching) is to update
the number externally by the bot editing the template.
I have a pywikipedia bot that updates currency tables from RSS:
