sin comentarios
- It wasn't just the 'greater than' symbol that was missing, but commented code somehow became uncommented, and another section was altogether missing, which led me to believe it wasn't misinterpreted by WordPress but actually changed by someone.

Surface Forms
uncommented positive
Morphology
uncommented = commented (transparent) = un + comment + ed
The word is formed by productive negation 'un-' added to the participial/adjectival 'commented'; the negative meaning is directly recoverable.
Etymology
Uncommented comes from the prefix un- meaning 'not' and comment meaning 'a note or mark', so a helpful way to remember it in code is to think of removing the comment mark. That's why an uncommented line is active and will run.
