	Efficient editing aids can go a long way in making the expanding and improving a wiki easy. There are several html/wiki tags that I use very often on a page. Stopping to add these tags to my text is sometimes distracting. One of the good solutions will be to use an external editor to edit your wikis. For example an advanced editor like [[A_Productive_Desktop_Environment_for_Scientists_and_Engineers_-_Part_III#My_experience_with_Vim\|vim]] can be enahanced with all sorts of macros and programs to aid fast editing.
