on a per wiki format basis.
Is there a forum a large number of them tend to hang out on, so that
one could ask them to think about this? What would be the best to do
in the meantime? Something like
text/x-wiki+textile
text/x-wiki+markdown
perhaps?
I think, however, that this is something the format creators should be
encouraged to register, or at least suggest a convention for.

Silly question probably, but is there a wiki mime type?
I was thinking of "text/wiki" or "text/x-wiki" or something.
I want people to be able to edit their blogs in wiki format in
BlogEd and be able
to distinguish when they do that from when they enter plain
text, html or xhtml.
Perhaps this is also useful for the protocol.
It would be really useful, especially for feeds that archive the
content
of a blog. It would be best to use the official names of the formats,
like
"text/markdown" or "text/textile". The wikis and blogs that I use
can be
configured to accept different formats, so "text/wiki" doesn't work.
