Confluence question: preserving markup?

[Anastasia Cheetham]

I have a question for any Confluence wizards out there:

Sometimes, I use mark-up on a page that gets lost if the page is  
opened for editing in Rich Text mode. Since Rich Text mode is the  
default editing mode, my formatting is lost every time I try to edit  
the page.

Needless to say, this is frustrating :-)

Does anyone know a way to work around this? Any way?? Can I set my own  
personal default editing mode to Wiki Mark-up somehow? If not, can the  
default editing mode for the whole wiki be set to Wiki Mark-up? If so,  
would that annoy everyone else?

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
