MediaWiki+FCKeditor is a branch of FCKeditor developed for WYSIWYG wiki editing.[4] For more information, see mw:Extension:FCKeditor (Official).
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 a well-known vulgarity in the English language (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. The CK letters now stand for Content and Knowledge. [5]
