The nav.wiki-text for the Create Topic dialogue currently contains 3 headers, bold and italic.
In order to improve the UI/UX of posting important feedback-related threads (such as bug reports and feature requests), more options should be added to this menu in accordance with the capabilities of Wikitext. Moreover, an option should be added to toggle a preview of the post in an improved input field to cut back on unnecessary reposts/edits. Also bear in mind that some of these options can be added to an additional/optional menu to keep the interface clean, but still showcase what is supported.
Lastly, because of the number of potential additions, these options should be condensed into single-symbol icons for consistency and space. (e.g. I for Italic, B for Bold)
Additions

EDIT: Special characters are not supported
