User blog comment:Najevi/Should a wiki editor focus on content or style or education or all 3/@comment-101162-20091229104301

It's true that it's annoying that differents type of wikis use different wiki markup. Some weeks ago, i started a DotClear blog (in french) and was happy to see it used wiki markup. Until i look closer and see it wasn't Mediawiki markup. But does having a standard about wiki markup would have been possible anyway ? Every wiki software are made by different persons and they have the right to design their software as they wish. They dont all make use of templates or magics word. That doesn't mean they'll all get successfull. I like mediawiki because i almost see limitless possibilities in it's markup/coding/template system. I was the first time i worked with something so simple and so powerfull. My next step; learn the Zend Framework. ;-)
