Everything that can be placed on the wiki pages or otherwise stored in the wiki (and is not logs). This is similar to CategoryObject.
Instead of editing conversations like documents, build threaded conversation support into the WikiEngine. Comments are added with “reply to this” buttons, and appear in a hierarchy of comments. Like Slashdot, Kuro5hin.
A single and simple markup to inject text/content styling with already well known syntax and all possibilites from CSS style sheets.
Hide e-mail addresses (or other addresses like ICQ numbers or Jabber account names) from automated spiders while keeping them accessible to humans at the same time.
IRC conversations can be easily included in a wiki.
Allow to include music sheets on wiki using some markup, render them appropriately and generate MIDI files for downloading/listening.
Permanent anchors can be included in pages. They create a globally-usable name (in the same namespace as normal wikipage names) that leads to the marked fragment. They are like a “COME FROM” statement for wiki - the permanent anchor creates an implicit redirect from the nonexistant page to the fragment.
Structured text is text that uses indentation and simple symbology to indicate the structure of a document. For the next generation of structured text, see MoinMoin:ReStructuredText and Zope:StructuredText.

User-editable program code in pages.
Many proposed wiki features are in reaction to the problem of spam.
(Click the heading to get a list of all wiki features that mention wiki spam).
Spam has made Usenet News and email practically unusable for some people. There is great hope that wiki technology (perhaps with just a few modifications) will be far more resistant to spam. People also hope that a solution to spam can be found for at least one of wiki, blog, email, news, then later perhaps that solution could be applied to the others.
The ability to make variables in a wiki.
A variable is a miniature “storage bin” for information- sort of like a page, but much, much smaller, and made to be readily accessible to software.
The idea of a WikiWhiteboard is to expand the wiki technique to at least visual images.
