Under the xwiki root folder >> Templates, I found the editactions.vm
file.
I had to replace the line
#if($request.minorEdit)checked="checked"#end TO
checked="checked"
That seems to set the minor edit box to checked for all the pages. I
prefer
it this way since on my wiki instance there are on an average 60-100
articles being added daily and almost equal number being edited
throughout
the day. Most people tend to forget that the changes they are making
is a
minor edit (epecially when they are making minor edits because of time
constraint).
I have realised that it may not be a good idea to make changes to
the vm
files. However, I've also not come across any side effect of
enabling the
minor edit so far.
The only side effect is that you'll need to merge your change when you
upgrade.
You could also maybe use a JSX skin extension instead.
