Only if you immediately go all-WYSIWYG and no-one is ever allowed to
directly edit wikitext ever again. This strikes me as likely to go
over very badly indeed.
No. I clearly said there would be small amounts of normalisation to
deal with new wikitext edits, but that the whole article would only
need to be normalised once. I was not assuming we would do away with
wikitext editing entirely (and wouldn't support doing so).
