This is terribly unfortunate, because a WikiWikiWeb should be as simple
as pie:
click edit
write
save
To make links, use BumpyWords, as we sometimes say on the PhpWiki project.
Wikis should make writing hypertext fun and dirt simple. If the syntax of
the Wiki gets in the way, the purpose of the Wiki has been defeated.
For comparison, try adding a page for yourself here:
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/CocoaDevTestPage
Wikis tend to suffer from feature creep, but I've always pounded on the
idea that PhpWiki has to retain the utter simplicity of the original
WikiWikiWeb.
