Hi Steven! Thanks for the link, there are a lot of editors there. In particular Eclipse Plugin and WikipediaFS [2] are very interesting. they doesn't seem to have much features for the templates and parser functions but I can surely export they syntax highlighting options to build the editor with AceEditor or something similar.

Hi everyone!
What tools exist to edit templates and other article that are rich with wiki markup? I mean not WYSIWYG editor but something like IDE for markup:
- good highlighting
- auto-completion, guessing the template parameters
- Dealing with curly brackets (at least showing where the closing
bracket
is) 4) hings and auto-completion for parser functions
WikEd [1] is slightly better than the default editor but still... is
there
something else?

Several options:
- Online, there is a newish syntax highlighter (no completion, etc.) that
is much better than WikiEd IMO: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Remember_the_dot/Syntax_highlighter
- On the desktop, there is a large number of options:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_editor_support. Based on my experience as an OS X and Ubuntu user, I know the following text editors support MediaWiki syntax well, though you need to configure them to do so: Vim, Gedit, jEdit, TextMate, and Sublime Text 2 (the last isn't on the list on-wiki, but it supports TextMate plugins). Some of these will also grab a live article for you and let you edit it, though I wouldn't depend on that being easy to set up.
