Sample document for editor area test

This document is used in the articles Evaluating WYSIWYG-editors 2006 and 2007. It contains various markup features commonly used by content editors or "rédacteurs de contenu" as they are called in France. It is important that a WYSIWYG tool has features that are easily available for the editor. If not, there is a risk that content won't receive proper markup. Examples of commonly found content are:

  1. Headings
  2. Links (with optional title)
  3. Lists (like this one)
  4. Tables
  5. Language information
  6. Acronyms and abbreviations
  7. Emphasis and strong emphasis
  8. Quotes, inline and block
  9. Images

Test procedure

In the test we will try to recreate this document using the editor tools. To make sure tables can be inserted properly we re-visit banana import statistics from 1998.

Top banana importers 1998 (value of banana imports in millions of US dollars per million people)
Country Millions of US dollars per million people
Sweden 17.12
United Kingdom 8.88
Germany 8.36
Italy 5.96
United States 4.78

For block quotes we will have a look at what Joe Clark says about redheads:

"Since boyhood I’ve always believed, at the deepest level, that redheads are standard-bearers of the grandest and most wondrous human beauty."

I agree completely and I am honoured to be a contributor to the occasional redhead cluster phenomenon. Which brings us to the next item, a picture of a readheaded man.

A beautiful redheaded man wearing superman clothes and a sticker that says Clark.

By coincidence he has a sticker that says "Clark" on him. It's me says Peter Krantz.
