Thread:Talk:Flow Portal/Interactive Prototype/What about all the nice things Wikitext offers us? Will they be available in Flow?/reply (42)

(Partial duplicate message.)

Well, think about it again. If Flow is not going to have full Wikimarkup (including templates), and the ability to edit raw Wikimarkup, it is not suitable for article talk pages. If Flow will not, at present, use Wikimarkup, then you will be creating a third representation of Flow messages (VE, Flowmarkup, and now Wikimarkup), and the translations will probably fail.

It's not your job, but fixing Visual Editor so it doesn't damage Wikimarkup is a difficult task, fixing it so it doesn't damage Flowmarkup is a separate tax, unlikely to be completed by the time (someone) has said they would want to rollout Flow for article talk pages.
