Even after setting $wgUseTidy = true, many of my pages show an error "Expression error: Missing operand for >" at the bottom in the References section. It looks like an error message produced by the ParserFunctions package. I've never seen this on en.wikipedia.org so I wonder if some customization or other cleanup has been done.
I'm running MediaWiki 1.15.1 and the versions of Cite and ParserFunctions that correspond to 1.15.x. Is this something easily fixable?
Thanks, Eric

I'm using MediaWiki 1.15.1 and I imported the dump using xml2sql. Most enwiki pages render correctly, but a bunch of pages (e.g. Jennifer_Garner) show spurious </span> tags (inspecting the page source show a bunch of </span>).
Are you using $wgUseTidy? It is an HTML cleanup process that is always enabled on WMF projects. Since it it is there, template creators often miss closing spans and other things, or leave in extra close tags, and never notice because the tidy fixes them. Would not surprise me a bit if dozens of en.wp templates have such errors; I find them occasionally on en.wikt.
