<p>Currently, code highlighting is turned off (see <a href="http://meta.serverfault.com/users/14041/balpha">balpha</a>'s comment <a href="http://meta.serverfault.com/questions/2672/syntax-highlighting-based-on-tag/2673#2673">here</a>). It is possible to turn it on, if we want so.</p>

<p>I think this would be nice to have, maybe on a per-tag basis, but turning it on is definitely the first step.</p>

<p>Because it is disabled site-wide, we can't force it by manually specifying the language as <a href="http://meta.stackexchange.com/a/81971/160455">described here</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Caution</strong>: This vote is not about wether or not we should enable it automatically when a certain tag is used, it's wether or not we should enable code highlighting on the site.</p>

<p>Upvote the according answer below.</p>

<p><strong>Update</strong>: I think it's pretty clear where this is going. Can anyone do this change?</p>
