I have another use case here. About 2 months ago I created a new wiki -- for university teachers to put their lecture descriptions and sylabuses and things like that. The teachers are mostly mathematicians, with poor experience with computers -- yet used to using LaTeX for their articles. The markup is explained in their native tongue on less than a half of a page, and linked from the front page, together with short explanation on how to make links etc. Of course, I used Creole for the wiki's markup -- in order to promote and test it.
Today I checked the pages. There are over 140 pages now (the teachers are required to submit their lecture descriptions). Apart from 10 pages that just contain uploaded {{{.doc}}} or {{{.pdf}}} files, all the pages are filled with text. The text is carefully formated, practically being several levels of different lists. The __only__ markup used are 2 levels of headings -- first and third (for some unknown reason). All the lists are made using "1., 2., 3.", "a), b), c)" and "-". There isn't even a single paragraph break.
Of course, the astonishing similarity between pages suggests that the users just copied each other's formatting.
The wiki isn't public, and I'm not allowed to publish any of the information on it, but here is a sample page with all letters replaced with x-es (the horizontal line and link at the bottom are added automatically):
