Feature Description

Is it possible to add Asciidoc support to the wiki? Adding a file with .adoc at https://codeberg.org/ did not work. The file was added with git and ssh and it does not even show up in the wiki pages after pushing.

Since rendering of Asciidoc files is possible in the repos, I think that adding support to the wiki would not be hard and will be appreciated. It does help with consistency and gives the benefits of Asciidoc.

Codeberg has Asciidoc support enabled:

Isn't the entire point of a wiki that you don't need a user to suggest a file-extension or to know the filetype? So you can edit it right in a browser without making it complex.

What you seem to want is a normal git repo, not a wiki (that just happens to be backed by git).

I don't want a git repo (although a wiki is a git repo anyway in the background).
Gitlab allows you to choose the filetype on creating a wiki page. You can still use the browser to edit the wiki like with Markdown, but you use the Asciidoc syntax.
