Description

Certain markup will trigger exception ("AttributeError: Formatter instance has no attribute 'page'") in MoinMoin/parser/text_moin_wiki.py Line 961. Said markup will also not be rendered correctly (missing space between monospaced text and text in brackets).

Steps to reproduce

1. create a page in text mode which contains the following markup:

    {{{monospace

   (and text in brackets)}}}
2. save that page
3. open that page in GUI editor

Example

• http://test.wikiwikiweb.de/GuiEditorCrash?action=edit&editor=gui

Component selection

• general

Workaround

edit page in text editor, which does not have this problem. Or do not use the problematic markup. Or apply the following patch (ugly, but seems to remove the problem):

This will, however, not remove the rendering problem mentioned above.
