Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Wikitext
Hi everybody,
I need a bit of advice. I'm going to give a demo about
mediawiki to a few people used to deal with WYSIWYG
type of editors. They are all smart enough to pick up
wikitext no problem, but I'd like to be able to mention
a few reasons about why they will have to deal with
wikitext directly and not its formatted representation.
A few people who have gone through the same transition
have told me that there is a bit of an initial code-phobia
obstacle to overcome and I'd like to motivate the newcomers
to go through that first obstacle to enjoy what's on the other
side.
Any suggestion?
Thank you!
Manu
