<ul> appearing on View node but not Edit in CMS

[laflannery]

Background

I've seen this a few times, so far only on Facilities pages but I can't say for sure that it's only on there (I found it there because I'm looking at Siteimprove and that only has access to VAMCs) so maybe this is a Text editor issue and therefore a CMS issue?

Description

And accessibility issue is occurring where there is an empty <ul> on the FE. When I look in Drupal I can see it on the View node. However, when I go in to edit the content to remove the code, it doesn't exist. This does tend to sort itself out and remove itself when I resave the mode but why is it appearing in the first place?

Additional Examples

• https://prod.cms.va.gov/tennessee-valley-health-care/programs/covid-19-vaccines
  • The list element is right above the heading "Commonly asked questions". And it's actually an <ol> which is the first one I've seen, it's typically a <ul>
• https://prod.cms.va.gov/tampa-health-care/programs/flu-season
  • Blank <ul> is above "Flu Vaccine FAQs". There actually are to empty <p> tags which are in the text editor but then in between those in the view node is the <ul>

@EWashb This just feels very CMS global, it just seems too weird for it to be Facilities specific so it seems like I should assign to CMS team. But obviously want to know your thoughts

@laflannery that seems fair. We can triage and investigate. If it turns out not to be global we can always reassign. cc: @gracekretschmer-metrostar @michelle-dooley

Thanks! Also, I am finding a lot of examples in SI so if you want more I can certainly give you many many more

[EWashb]

Sure thing. Add as many as you'd like to the ticket. I think that would be really helpful @laflannery
