I'd prefer to write in orgmode and export as asciidoc. I used to use asciidoc but much prefer orgmode now. > Is this feasible? Anyone doing this or done this before? Not directly as far as I know. You have different options: - Export to odt and from there to mediawiki followed by some text munging - Use the generic exporter to generate mediawiki again followed by some text munging - Tweak the generic exporter (don't know how feasible and easy that is) - Write an exporter. For simple ascii exporter that should be doable. There are however different competing starting points. There is an experimental generic exporter by Bastien and there is apparently one by Jambunathan. Can't tell you which one is better.
