You've already lost these people when you say
"titles are some word on a
line". No it isn't.
so you must teach writing to these people. at least wiki
writing. if the layout is that important, probably the
cotnent is of little interest.
we are not painters, here. The aspect of a page is already
completely dependent of the browser setup, did you miss this?
do you know how many people uses the option "forgive the
page fonts and setup, use only mine" because many web site
are unreadable?
wrote and see complete gibberish. They just want to
Insert / Table and press
Tab to add a row. Tables in Word are hard for people to understand - in
wikitext or html or anything else? Forget it.
web is html. may be this is the first thing, and html is
_not_ what you want, layout wise.
to a table - and they're still not going to do it.
Afraid of messing it up.
true, but also true in any word processor (and worst on any
spreadsheet writer)
They are used to wysiwyg editors, they are not used to
revision history and
the restoration capability of MediaWiki.
wiki is a tool. any tool needs understanding and a wiki is
far more simple as any Excell file.
on your case, make your users use Word (or better,
OpenOffice.org), export to pdf and allow uploading of pdf...
or use an other tool (other than wiki, other than the web).
