Oh no problem! The Template:CharacterSelectModule is, admittedly, a little sloppy. The core of the CharacterSelectModule is contained within the page MediaWiki:CharacterSelectModule. This page is written completely in HTML, so there is no wiki markup. Because of this, when you load this page, it will not look very good and will not function correctly.

This is ok, because this page is simply meant to house the HTML code. The HTML code is then parsed correctly through the use of the  tag.

This  tag is called in the Template:CharacterSelectModule, and when you load the template, the HTML from the MediaWiki page is parsed correctly, and that's how it's done! The reason that I am using a template instead of just inserting the  tag everywhere is because when a webpage is loaded on a mobile browser, the template can load an alternate template appropriate for mobile browsers. Meanwhile, the HTML code on the MediaWiki page cannot.

I hope that answered your question! ^^
