[OGDev] other things going on

Hi Kake 

I'd have to check - couldn't be definite, but I am pretty sure the vast majority of the Milton Keynes OG contributions apart from the core team are just plain text (Tom? thoughts? you agree?).

Admittedly our Edit page doesn't have "editing hints" at the top of the page or links out to guides so I imagine the contributors who aren't regular wiki contributors probably just go for plain text input seeing the big empty web form box. Something we'll have to tweak and then see if we get greater use of markup.

regards
Mark

I forgot to reply to this bit, sorry!

Do any of these people even attempt to use wiki markup?
