I agree. It *does* a good job. But its not 100% kosher. My thought was "better to convert to TW WikiText directly when we can" (not need another render engine unless there is no other TW way to standard format). > It might be useful to provide Online Convertors in TW between formats? >> > Why not?

The missing piece may just be HOW to help a beginner get to grips with that very richness. I hope we are not leaving that to fate :-). Very interesting post! Thanks!
