'''Creole''' is a [[Wikitext|wiki markup]] language. The project,
which has been brought into being by the people at the Wiki Markup
Standard Workshop at the WikiSym2006, aims at creating a common
[[markup language]] that enables or simplifies the transfer of content
across different wikis. The goal was and is to "create a common markup
that was not a standardization of an arbitrary existing markup, but
rather a new markup language that was created out of the common
elements of all existing engines."<ref
name="PressRelease">[http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/WikiCreolePressRelease
WikiCreole: Wiki Creole Press Release<!-- Bot generated title
-->]</ref> To achieve this, different existing wiki markups have been
analyzed and the most commonly used elements have found their way into
the specification.

On July 4th 2007, [http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Creole1.0 Version
1.0 (final)] of Creole has been released. Since then, the development
has been "frozen" for the next two years to allow time for adoption.
Despite the freezing, the discussion about good practices in wiki
markup design and about possible additions and changes for future
versions of the markup continues.
