Thanks for the explanation but doesn't really answer what I said

The wikis still got broken and put us very far behind on trying to build up a wikipedia alternative from empty

If fiatjaf's goal with starting from empty was to do something good, he wouldn't have stunted the growth like this

You did not have the right response to fiatjaf going "oh starting from empty wasn't bad enough, we also need to ruin all the entries of the first person who's created hundreds of wiki entries"

We're going to build a converter, so that anyone can just move everything over to the new format, by clicking a button. It's not a serious problem, going forward.

We need to build that, anyway, so that we can give people the opportunity to move their content from 30023 Markdown articles to 30041 Asciidoc articles.

That way, they can write in whichever markup they prefer and then "upgrade" or leave it, as is.

Moving from 30818 Markdown to 30818 Asciidoc is even easier. Just have to copy-paste the fields into a new event or set of events, and have them sign it.

I'll never move to asciidoc. For me it'll just be markdown, wikitext, and a better future format with markdown's geographic neutrality but more features

Well, you can add code blocks with named syntax to Markdown, with the Nostr Markdown flavor. You would just need to design a client that reacted when it encountered a code block like

```wld

This is a code block containing nostr:npub1wamvxt2tr50ghu4fdw47ksadnt0p277nv0vfhplmv0n0z3243zyq26u3l2's awesome new functionality.

```

Thank you, I think I will end up using this info 🙏

Alright, I'll just have some faith you're trying to make everything work 🤙
