i know kids and geeks with the right attitude to contribute will anyway learn them. but even for them it doesn't harm to make things easy.

i am aware and to an extent accept the thinking that the difficult wiki syntax helps to limit the vandals..

but besides geeks and students who have lot of time to contribute, we have an elderly computer illiterate population which is not comfortable even with basic tasks in computer. but i have seen many of them willing to contribute with their rich experience and knowledge in traditional areas like literature, religion etc. It's important we balance the user interface to aid all instead of intentionally favouring computer literates.

don't feel like stressing this aspect much..
