It’s fine in wikitext. Leave it as it is.

Keep it

Keep the look of wikitext, but add an easier way to adding your comment.

What do you mean, «the look of wikitext»?

I mean the look of wikitext

Wikitext is not about looks, it’s about how one enters data. The final look is determined i.a. by the skin in use. I started this thread to voice my adamant opposition against anything that’s not editable/viewable as a flat text source, like Flow and Wikidata (to make a long story short), and also against unavoidable middle layers between user and that flat text source, such as VisualEditor.

If you want «an easier way to adding your comment», presumably easier that what’s done in most WMF projects, which is wikitext, then you don’t want it kept and you need to go add your support to another thread.
