Markdown content was converted to HTML automatically

I have several wordpress pages created using markdown. It seems to me that after I modified the parent and order of the pages, the markdown content was automatically converted to HTML. Is it a bug? Does anyone know how to convert the HTML content back to markdown content? They are long lists of links, and it is difficult to manage the links in HTML format. Thanks!

To clarify, I meant the markdown source code in the edit box was converted to HTML source code.

I tested it by doing the following:

First, I created a page with the following content:
```
Test:

    * Test 1
    * Test 2
    * Test 3
```
Then, I published the page and clicked ‘edit’ to edit the page again, and the code in the text box stayed the same.

After that, I modified the parent of the page, updated the page, and tried to edit the page again. The content in the text box became the following.
```
Test:

    <ul>
    <li>Test 1</li>
    <li>Test 2</li>
    <li>Test 3</li>
    </ul>
```

As I expected, you’re in the wrong forum and need to be at WordPress.ORG for help with that version of the software.
