Wiki Sym 2006

This wiki was originally set up at the Wiki Markup Standard Workshop at the Wikisym 2006 in Odense, Denmark. It was used to publish the Goals that where formulated at the workshop by the participants. The outcome of this workshop was the first draft of creole (the first spec) called Creole 0.1.

Elements Discussed#

These where the elements, discussed at the WMS-Workshop. All other elements where added later throught the evolution of the spec in this wiki.

• Lists - Ordered and unordered lists
• Bold And Italics - Text emphasis
• Headings
• Links - Internal and external
• Paragraphs
• Linebreaks - How to handle linebreaks, forced line breaks...
• Preformatted And Nowiki - For inserting text with a lot of special characters, like sourcecode
• Placeholder - Markup for unsupported syntax
• Images - in-line images and in-line image links
• Horizontal Line - often used as divider in discussions -> potential conflict with dashes for lists
