Take a look at what Wikipedia is currently doing with the vector skin. I'm
having no problems, and, really, asking people to do their own markup is
not something I see as a great issue. It requries people to engage
mentally - at least somewhat - with what they're doing and forces them to

Our experience has been that once the FCKeditor was installed on our 60+ wikis
usage went up. Our users are mostly intermittent, using a wiki infrequently,
so learning and retaining wikitext is not something we can take for granted.
And I agree if it were just bold, italics, etc, everything

Becuase Mediawiki was designed as a replacement for hand coding or learning
html, not as a replacement for Word or WordPerfect.

So to answer the original question of Why don't we have WYSIWYG

I'd be amazed to see a great WYSIWYG editor for any wiki, even among commercial
packages. I evaluated Atlassian's very popular Confluence wiki awhile back,
and it took me all of 5 minutes to find several bugs in the editor. Likewise
for the wiki in SharePoint 2007, which was far less powerful.

Since a plethora of intelligent people with no desire to learn WikiCode
can now add content, the quality of posts has been in line with the
adoption of wiki use by these people. Thus one would say it has gone up.

Well, yes and no. Early word processors were quite buggy, and they had to
produce postscript to send to a laser printer, postscript that no one ever had

I agree. The latest version that I use (2.6.4) has a (C) menu button that
allows you to add Categories to your page, bringing up a dialog box and showing
