Description Christopher Baker 2010-01-16 10:17:03 UTC
This patch changes the output of the line to use wikicode bullets, rather than html.

It also changes the outline format to use == notation for headers, instead of the font styling used before.

It would be best if there was a way to specify which option you like (as using headers wouldn't always be the best), but I don't know how to do this. I thought I should share it anyway.

Assigning to myself - I wasn't aware of this patch until now.
Comment 3 Yaron Koren 2010-08-26 18:30:09 UTC
Christopher - is there an advantage to using wiki-text instead of HTML? As far as I know, all the result formats currently output HTML.
Comment 4 Christopher Baker 2010-08-26 19:10:27 UTC
The only advantage to using wikitext that I saw the reduced size requirements. This change was spurred on by my need to have the outline show up in the table of contents (and I wasn't sure if doing it in HTML would put it in the TOC).

Comment 6 Sumana Harihareswara 2012-01-30 18:19:18 UTC
Adding need-review keyword since AFAICT this patch hasn't been rejected or applied.
Comment 7 MWJames 2012-07-09 00:08:59 UTC
The wiki-parser will transform any specific wiki-code into HTML therefore it seems unnecessary to output wiki specific syntax since its get transformed at a later stage.

If their is a real advantage of using wiki-code instead of HTML, please feel free to iterate more exhaustively but for now I will close this bug but since it has been open for nearly 2 years.

Feel free to re-open this bug if necessary.
