A wikitext standard has to support the GFDL corpus since it's so huge. This means it must track mediawiki.

Practically, this means that Wikimedia musttake the lead towards any wikitext standardexternal link, for instance, holding it constant for periods of time so that other developers can target the standard, which would have to have versions:
  • wikitext 2005?
  • wikitext 2006? etc.
