I think we will all benfit from the adoption of wiki markup standards. The lack of wiki data entry standards is likely to inhibit the spread of wikis. People are likely to be discouraged as they attempt to move from one wiki to another. I get frustrated going back and forth from Wikipedia to the WikiWikiWeb to the TWikis I use and I'm an avid fan of the technology. -- RandallSchuh - 14 Apr 2004
