I totally agree with Steven and I think we really want to make this easier
(especially for small edits). I use a nice app called "Wiki Edit" on my Ipad
(along with some random editing on the browser) which is actually pretty
nice (and handles wiki text well given the limitations). It works for
basically any mediawiki wiki. http://www.wikieditapp.com/
