Hi :) Well found!! Thanks for sharing that fix. it's a bit weird to have something like that enabled by default but i guess it is quite useful for a lot of people. Personally i do all my wiki-editing either directly in the page's built-in editor but occasionally copy&paste into GEdit or something. Word made me suspicious of using a word-processor for that sort of thing and i've never tried Writer for it. Regards from Tom :)
