What I do, when I work on text for a Wiki page, is type the unformatted 
text in Writer so I can get all of the spelling [and such] correct.  
Then when the text part is correct, I copy/paste it into the text 
box/window of the editing process of the Wiki page.

There are other ways of doing things.

Also, I have taken the "formatting characters" for the Wiki page and 
added it to the text while in Writer.  Sometimes it is easier that way.
