Description Jeremie Bresson CLA 2012-12-13 15:46:01 EST 
From Table help [1] page:
> The above marks [ed. {@|@, @|+@, @|-@, @!@, @|@, @|}@] must start on a new line except the double @||@ and @!!@ for optionally adding consecutive cells to a line. However, **blank spaces at the beginning of a line are ignored**


2 examples: 

bc. 
{|
 | first cell
 | second cell
 |-
 | second row
 | and cell
 |}

bc. 
 {| border="1"
 ! lorem
 ! ipsum
   |-
 | dolor
 | ameti
 |}

These examples are valid in MediaWiki but are misinterpreted in WikiText (blank space is interpreted as start for a pre bloc). Partially responsible is probably the change induced with bug 381912.
