- Training - it's often hard to get someone who is used to mailing
around Word docs as attachments to use a wiki with its {{{random-adjective}}} syntax instead of WYSIWYG. How do folks deal with it?
I'm working over "WYSIWYM editor for MediaWiki" project. The idea is to integrate FCKeditor, InstaView and Wikificator. I've managed to develop dinamic (client-side, no _USE_EDITOR_) switching between standart wikitext editing and visual FCK-based editing. First release comming soon... ---------------------- Everything is relative

I'd be very interested in seeing what you have come up with. One of the challenges with the project I'm working on right now is trying to engage non-technical staff in using an enternprise wiki.
FCKeditor has been my main solution so far, but I'm very curoius about what you have cooking over there.

I've released the first beta version of wclEditor on meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/wclEditor.
It's rather limitid yet, but even now one can see the idea's potential! First of all, I want to say that this version has only demonstrational purpose. FCKeditor breaks the formatig. I've partily solved it adding <br style="display:none"> as a line-break token, but VCK also adds spaces at the beginig of the lines...
So if somebody knows how to make FCK preserve the formatting, please tell me - it is one of the biggest problem of wclEditor. However the testing of InstaView and Wikificator showed no diff's when comparing with the source wikitext. Also IV's output was successfuly compared with MediaWiki's (at list paragraphs, < pre >, tables and simple lists). ---------------------- Everything is relative

Nope, I don't own a host. I planned to demonstrate how to use FCKeditor on Wikipedia without installation (It could work...), but it seems to me that when we use fckeditor.net/fckeditor/fckeditor.js it redirects to FCKeditors home page. So all I can give are screenshots or (maybe small presentation). If it is interesting to you - please tell me. But I don't promise that I'll answer soon cause I'm going to have a trip to Caucasian Mountains for a couple of weeks.
Good luck!
