It's interesting. Confluence's "user friendly" editing and interlinking is a weakness for those who wish to have a clean hierarchy and well-defined document layout.

Before our company started using Confluence, our team ran a Dokuwiki server. FOSS, can hook into AD, many plugins and extensions available. Worth looking at... yes, it does have Markdown based editing, though it has a rich editor to assist.

EDIT: Apparently they have a WYSIWYG plugin. Haven't tested it.

I mean the problem is that doesn't always go down well in an interdisciplinary environment.

Generally Markup works well for coders, but if they're non-coders it can sometimes be a challenge to get people using it I've found.
