[Steve W. <sw...@pa...>]

I'd like to move (again) to a syntax like the NBTSC Wiki, which is in line
with suggestions by many users over the last two years. Ali went for
syntax that is a lot like how people do things in plain text elsewhere:

*bold*
/italic/

I think are two examples. Ali's reasoning was the marked up page language
should be as easy to read/understand as the rendered page.

Now, the one thing that has troubled me about both the plugin syntax and
the proposed plain text tags is they are not consistent with the markup to
date... and inconsistency is not good for the user. As PhpWiki grows in
features, though, I understand it gets harder to maintain consistency.

I'd like to see some proposals that are consistent with our current
syntax, or some way that would be compatible with NBTSC syntax.
