Your use of "likely" there turns out to be largely incorrect - one of the biggest problems with wikitext is that it's all but unparsable by machines other than the original parser routines in MediaWiki. That fact was one of the inspirations for this list existing at all: to come up with a definition of wikitext that could be used by machine parsers at all. - d. _______________________________________________ Wikitext-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitext-l
