Customizable wikitags

Certain types of documents have certain types of content, and templates help quite a bit, but, template wiki tags could be a wonderfull feature

There are a few problems in formatting that could be solved with custom wiki tags. Wikitags probably do more than just get translated into HTML... some may require changes in the renderor, to allow for solving of problems such as numbered list seporation, and newline as newline...

unused wikitags

What wikitags are not in use now?

Implementation ideas

Just incorporate a few new tags to handle the issues

possibly the simplest way, but not wickedly cleaverly cool.

embeded in page

A special tag could redefine a use of a wikitag midway through a doc

Per page

Special sub pages that contain html for replacement when using special wiki tags.

Cons

• more stuff to move when moving a page
• use varies all over the place
• validating html could be complex, or allow complex bad things to pop up

Namespace wide

change the behavior of wiki tags per namespace

Cons

• may be too broad

Wiki wide

provide customized use of wikitags for entire wiki

Cons

• makes it hard to import and export wiki content
