| The Creole 1.0 project has been successfully finished. Therefore we decided to close down this wiki for editing. This web page will from now on document the Creole 1.0 spec and its evolution on its **<<$totalpages>> pages**, until a new major version will be approved. If you want to contribute to the next version of creole you can use the new creole wiki at [[http://wiki.wikicreole.org/]]. Find out more about this move on the [[Creole 2]] page. |

| !Some notes for new visitors |
| If you are not familiar with the markup you can change the editor at the right top of the edit area from plain (default) to WikiWizard, which has buttons for all common elements. Of course there is a [sandbox] as well. |

| Wikis share [common values|Ohana:WikiPrinciples], each wiki engine has its strength and weaknesses. There are wikis for big communities, best for corporate usage depending on the IT infrastructure and wikis that are simple to install and therefore ideal for personal usage. Users have different roles and might use therefore different wiki engines. Because wiki engines have different markup variants it makes them hard to use in combination. |

| Creole is a common wiki markup language to be used across different Wikis. It's not replacing existing markup but instead enabling wiki users to transfer content seamlessly across wikis, and for novice users to contribute more easily. Creole will create a community of wikis users and developers that forms a [Wiki Ohana]. This Wiki was initiated and originally set up by the [people] at the [Wiki Markup Standard Workshop|http://ws2006.wikisym.org/space/Workshop%3e%3eWiki+Markup+Standard] at the [Wikisym 06]. |

| Our conclusions for a beta wiki Creole markup have been placed at [all markup] (detailed analysis can be found at [elements]). Developers of eleven wiki [engines] have expressed willingness to implement Creole in their software. We are not setting up any strict guidelines for [implementation], but will leave that up to the developers to decide which way would be best. |
| === Creole Cheat Sheet |
| WikiCreole is **not** suggesting an arbitrary markup. We have conducted intensive research on common wiki markup elements (see [[reasoning]]). Each element was discussed in detail on the talk pages of this wiki, and chosen according to the [[goals]] and [[good practices]] formulated by a broad variety of wiki developers and users from different engines (see [[people]]). The cheat sheet is a digest of this work: |

| See the [[cheat sheet]] page for a full view. For details on the different elements see the current stable spec [[Creole 1.0]]. If you have questions about elements, use the talk pages of the according [[element]] pages. |

Developers of eleven wiki [[engines]] have expressed willingness to implement Creole in their software. We are not setting up any strict guidelines for [[implementation]], but will leave that up to the developers to decide which way would be best.

| Feel free to contribute to this wiki. Before you post, please make yourself familiar with what has already been discussed. Every page has an according talk page (the discussion tab). For a quick start on what can be discussed here, and what is out of the scope of this wiki, take a look at [[CreoleScope]] and [[Goals]]. |

| == How to Contribute |
| The Creole 1.0 spec was developed through this webpage, which used to be an open wiki. It is now closed down for public editing in order to keep a consistent state of the Creole 1.0 documentation. If you would like to contribute to the next version of Creole or have questions and are seeking for help on the current Creole spec, please use the new [[Creole 2]] wiki. |
