+Wiki editing guideline
+======================
+
+Ideally, text authors should apply only semantic (not visual) markup.
+Unfortunately the Markdown format only supports visual markup.
+
+These are suggestions for pseudo-semantic markup using Markdown or
+Mediawiki, suitable for post-processing also into print formats.
+
+ * Use emphasis + doublequote for foreign terms.
+ * Use doublequote + emphasis for titles.
+ * Use strong emphasis only for essential keywords, and very sparsely.
+ * Use blockquote only for citation (not as emphasis for other blocks).
+ * Use blockquote for citation block (not blockquote + other quotes).
+ * Use bibliography at each citation (preferrably at the end).
+ * Use canonical URL in hyperlink (not wikilink or relative URL).
+ * Use hyperlink only in footnote and bibliography (not in text body).
+ * Use square brackets for meta comments (not paranthesis).
+ * Use verbatim only for code and shell commands.
