Our limited forum interaction didn't involve much wikitext, so for us it's no big loss. There are alternatives for linking, though I don't think the WordPress-style fullurl linking is very mobile friendly, and the tags thing is not appealing on the web version.

Apart from Central, Dev and other meta wikis, 99% of discussions don't require wikitext, or require easy workarounds. Mentalities will have to be changed, though. Sorry, but you don't need your fancy templates on an RP thread for it to work.
