seeking comments and criticisms from the wiki community.
Q: What's this supposed to do? ============= ---- test ============= A1: "<hr /><p>test</p>". A2: Treat it as a 4-deep unordered list element.
From the "Internal and External Links" section
( http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Creole0.1#section-Creole0.1-InternalAndExtern... ), you have both internal and external links using double square brackets, e.g.:
============= [[MyBigPage|Go to my page]] [[http://www.wikicreole.org/]] [[http://www.wikicreole.org/ | Visit the WikiCreole website]] =============
Doesn't that implicitly assume that articles don't start with "http://" ? And is the "http://" matching case-sensitive or not?
Certainly on the English Wikipedia, we have article names that look like URLs. E.g. these are all valid wiki articles or redirects: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/http://www.google.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/http://www.ebay.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/http://amazon.com And there's also these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ftp:// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/mailto:
How is the user to create a internal link to these pages? Currently "[[Http://www.google.com/]]" will give an internal link, although "[[http://www.google.com/]]" will not; hence the case-sensitivity question.
We plan to release a final spec on **Monday**, so last day to comment on Creole 0.1 is this Sunday.
Sorry, but I was away on leave last week, and so I didn't get around to reading this until today.
Creole is attempting to provide a small set of standardized markup that wiki engines can support in addition to their native markup; eight wiki engines, including MediaWiki, have committed to providing Creole support.
We're committed? I must have missed that bulletin.
I said I'd try a test implementation. Haven't had time to work on it yet.
Danger, Will Robinson! Syntax conflicts ahead.
Q: If "**" means start & stop bolding in Creole, and the creole spec says "Bold and italics should be able to cross lines", and we're wanting to support both native + Creole, then what's this going to render as? ========== ** test1 ** test2 ========== A1: Two list elements as per current. A2: "<strong>test1</strong>test2".
Q: If "{{" is used for image insertion in creole, what's this going to render as? ========== {{cleanup}} ========== A1: The cleanup template. A2: <img src="cleanup" />
Q: If "{{{" is used for preformatted text, what's a template that does this going to render as? ========== {{{1}}} ========== A1: Show the first passed param. A2: Show "<pre>1</pre>"
All the best, Nick.

I posted a draft of WikiCreole 0.1 http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Creole0.1 to wikicreole.org and we believe all the rough edges have been smoothed out, but are still seeking comments and criticisms from the wiki community.
Please either reply on http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Talk.Creole0.1 or just email me. We plan to release a final spec on **Monday**, so last day to comment on Creole 0.1 is this Sunday.
