LibreOffice for wiki pages [visual edition]. Learning wiki
markdown takes a while. I can certainly see the desire to have
a visual editor. A visual editor could lower the bar for

has some interesting statistics on why only a small portion of
new users contribute. The number one reason for not mapping is
it is too time consuming. Not exactly the same as editing the
wiki and the sample size was small, but I think it is safe to
assume that people may not want to learn another editor to
contribute . <br>

Yes, you're absolutely right.<br>
<br>
Maybe we should remember that a wiki supports HTML, well, a good
part of it, simple HTML as I described it before.<br>
With Thunderbird, I made the little evaluation test shown under my
signature and copied to a wiki page.<br>
A HTML editor like Kompozer may be used. It's WYSIWYG. The main
problem is avoiding the HTML that doesn't work.<br>
Beside that, one must just find how to copy HTML code to a Wiki
page.<br>
<br>
And hence, it's disappointing to see that what has been discussed on
lists, coming to suggestions, decisions or education may remains
hidden in e-mails. Some e-mail threads could be digested in one
message -> wiki page, keeping what remains true, is important,
and makes a proposition, a decision or excellent education.<br>
<br>

While I was writing the following of this e-mail with Thunderbird, I
copied&pasted its HTML code to:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Papou/HTML_in_wiki_pages">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Papou/HTML_in_wiki_pages</a><br>
(and left in some misunderstood tags to tidy up)<br>
Unfortunately, the <a tag does not work, but you see a workaround
below.<br>
<br>
All that was very WYSIWYG for what works.<br>
Unfortunately, pasting again the message after I sent it to myself
got a weird formating problem.<br>
<br>
This is a HTML demo of HTML features that work in a wiki page.<br>
<br>
This is a table of contents (with the Wiki tag _ _ T O C _ _ typed
in HTML text)<br>
<br>
__TOC__<br>
<br>
<h1>Title 1</h1>
<h2>Title 2</h2>
<ul>
<li>list line 1<br>
</li>
<li>list line 2</li>

We can use wiki tags inside HTML text:<br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>[[Main_Page]]</li>
<li>[<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Papou/HTML_in_wiki_pages">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Papou/HTML_in_wiki_pages</a>
HTML in wiki pages]<br>
</li>
<li>and, most of all, {{Tag|highway}}.</li>
</ol>

<blockquote type="cite">This is a quotation test, unfortunately
without the left side vertical bar on the wiki.<br>
