== About ==

TinyMCE is an extension to MediaWiki that allows for using the
open source TinyMCE text editor to edit page contents.

For more information on the TinyMCE extension, see its homepage at

	https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TinyMCE

== Credits ==

The TinyMCE extension was created by Duncan Crane and Yaron Koren.
Originally it used a significant amount of code from the VisualEditor
extension by Hallo Welt!, which is part of the BlueSpice MediaWiki
package. (Not to be confused with the better-known VisualEditor
extension developed by the Wikimedia Foundation.)

Version 1.0 is almost a complete rewrite of the plugin for TinyMCE 
that translates between html and wiki text.  IT greatly extends the
scope of the editor to as many different wiki text constructs as we 
could find! It also includes anumber of native TinyMCE plugins for 
file uploads, links, tables, citations, editing raw wiki text, 
comments, and a fontawesome plugin.

The majority of the code, though, consists of the TinyMCE editor
itself, which was mostly developed by the Ephox corporation.

Version 1.0 has been extensively and independently tested by
Wikibase bv.
