Edit completion rate - someone not merely clicking "edit", but
actually editing and hitting save - goes *way* up. Based on Wikia's
experience:

Wikitext used to be a lot simpler. Now it's impenetrable computer
code. This is not good enough.

There are all sorts of reasons why WYSIWYG editing in Mediawiki is a
Hard Problem. But FCKeditor is really very good these days and I'd
strongly recommend it for any fresh wikis. Turning it loose on
existing piles of wikitext such as, ooh, en:wp, is probably a
different matter.
