I only suggested AsciiDoc to be consistent with the markup used for our documentation.  Having two different markup syntaxes in use for the project could get annoying... but yes, I agree that the lack of syntax highlighting on the wiki can be even more annoying.

Github's wiki asciidoc doesn't play nicely with syntax highlighting: displays all the code with the same plain color, instead of highlighting the syntax elements like the IDEs do.
E.g. the sample code provided in the wiki asciidoc help:

.python.py
[source,python]
----
# i just wrote a comment in python
print "something"
# and maybe one more
----

renders like:

Whilst the markdown equivalent:

```python
# i just wrote a comment in python
print "something"
# and maybe one more
```

renders as expected:
http://screencast.com/t/YLMhs31Jm

I think this has been a problem for quite a while now: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/issues/280
Does anyone see any problem with allowing both markdown and asciidoc editors for our wiki? They both have pretty basic syntax and markdown seems to be better integrated (I guess that's why it's also the default editor).
