This wiki has a complete vector graphics editor in the browser (in JavaScript). This feature is implemented using a special extension which uses the open source svg-edit project, brought to you in part by Brion Vibber and Marc Laporte (thanks guys!). So, users are able to edit svg graphics in the browser. This is particularly useful if you want to collaboratively edit flow-chart diagrams online while also providing all the context and documentation about the diagram in your wiki. Of course the diagrams themselves are version controlled the same way that wiki articles are.

To use the editor, you can click "Edit" on the file page for an svg image. Then click on the "Advanced" toolbar where you will see the "pencil in a gear" icon for svg-edit.
