Point taken. This is my first go with wiki markup so I don't know what people use. My argument was that everyone knows Plain Text and HTML is easy to do in a WYSIWYG, but alot of people have never heard of the other options. I am for getting rid of LaTeX, even though I use it extensively, because I can compile into html anyway. A wiki should provide the shortest barrier to entry for someone wanting to add content. However, if they want to edit a page marked up in MoinMoin, then they must go out an learn MoinMoin markup to keep the style consistent. So, if we limit to PT, html, and one other option, we force people to learn a consistent markup style but there are no problems when going to edit a page. > > >Also, I haven't seen that markup style used > > yet, so I suggest we remove them as well. > > > > Hmm, this may explain why my pages still look like crap. > > I say if they work, leave them in.
