Problem templates are mostly those which start an HTML tag in one template, then finish it in another. For instance if {{table-header}} contains a <table>, and then the table rows and final </table> are in another template entirely. These have always broken on regular MediaWiki -- the template is required to close its own tags -- though they sometimes appeared to work on Wikipedia due to bugs with our HTML handling when Tidy is enabled.
Does this affect templates that use a <div> tag in one and a </div> tag in another? This affects many voting archive templates, such as {{at}}/{{ab}} or {{rfaf}}/{{rfab}}.
