--- Comment #2 from Eduard Braun <[email protected]> ---
This actually is a great idea!

In the end the MediaWiki syntax is some kind of source code after all (even if
it's syntax is really easy) and syntax higlighting is always a huge help for
reading through source code of all kinds.

If the built-in editor would contain some basic syntax highlighting this would
help new editor to learn wiki syntax and made editing for experienced users
more comfortable.

I already found a JavaScript with such functionality
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Remember_the_dot/Syntax_highlighter) and I
don't see any reason why something like this shouldn't be included in the
MediaWiki software (and on all Wikimedia projects) by default.
