UnGood

You know, default WikiStyle really annoys me. Using it for most purposes results in forced intercapping, e.g. ManageMent, which is usually both ugly and confusing. But at least that can be avoided with [[bracketing stuff]], so you are not required (just highly encouraged) to use the WikiStandard of GoodStyle (which is a pretty 1984 way of putting it, anyway). The worse problem is that when it's used for things that are already intercapped, like ClassName, it automatically creates dead links for you. You often don't want to create a new WikiPage any time you mention an object or method, so you have to then specially mark it up to prevent parsing as a WikiLink.

I have now run into several cases of annoying kludges in both directions, which makes me wonder who thought this system made any GoodSense in the first place?
