MediaWiki+FCKeditor
MediaWiki+FCKeditor is a branch of FCKeditor developed for WYSIWYG wiki editing.[3] For more information, see mw:Extension:FCKeditor (Official).
Name change
The FCK in FCKeditor stands for Frederico Caldeira Knabben, the creator of the editor and the project's Benevolent Dictator for Life. Unfortunately, those letters resemble the word fuck (something that Frederico, a native Brazilian, was unaware of when he first released the program). He has decided to change the program's name to CKEditor beginning with v3.0 [4]
