Can the templates from enwiki (at least those in use) be imported to the
test wiki?  It's important to look at the flagged revs, together with
templates, to make sure the css stylings don't conflict between what's used
in the infoboxes and what's used in the flagged rev interface elements.

On the Arabic Wikipedia, which is using flagged revisions, I have found many
pages where the infobox together with the flagged revs mw-revisiontag
(sighted/draft) div in the corner cause the infobox to be displaced on the
page.

Examples:

http://bit.ly/17anh9 (October 2 - arwiki calendar page)
http://bit.ly/3zfe5x (Polonium - arwiki element page)
http://bit.ly/1cR7J4 (Jurassic Park 2 - arwiki page)

(Note: I haven't had the time to look into this and find where exactly the
bug is, and help fix it.  I am curious if it's happening only on arwiki or a
more widespread problem)

It would be good know if this might be a problem on enwiki, by testing with
templates on the test wiki.
