35115	Empty footer element in main section of admin layout	Marijke Luttekes	Marijke Luttekes	"The Django admin layout has an empty `div#footer` in the main element.

== Location

Find the code in `django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/base.html`:

{{{
{% block footer %}<div id=""footer""></div>{% endblock %}
}}}

The code was last touched about four years ago when someone fixed the indentation on this template.

== Proposed solutions

There are two ways to go about this:

1. Remove it, as there appears to be no immediate use for this element.
2. Keep it, but in the spirit of semantic HTML, replace it with a `<footer>` element outside the `<main>` element."	Cleanup/optimization	closed	contrib.admin	5.0	Normal	fixed	HTML	Tom Carrick	Accepted	1	0	0	0	1	0
