in reply to Obtruding Writeup Formatting Tips
Why not insist that all top level nodes contain some markup. And inform users not using markup that their submission will be rejected until they add some.
If its just default text, I would be tempted to just cut it without reading it. If I can't post without formatting, I'll be forced to think about formatting (and hopefully use it).
I doubt many such nodes should really go without any markup whatsoever. And for those that really can, is it that bad to end with <br/> or something to avoid this rule? |

I like that idea, but I think that the current markup is somewhat difficult for beginners.
What about letting the user chose between the current markup, and none at all?
In the "no markup" mode line breaks would be preserved, and one might even automatically detect code sections (paragraphs that contain lines that begin with whitespaces, for example). | [reply] |
