+# Markdown
+
+The usual way to write pages for this wiki is [pandoc]'s extended form
+of [markdown]. You can start using markdown and later switch to
+DocBook by using `pandoc` to convert your markdown page to DocBook for
+more sophisticated formatting. To do so use the wiki's export option
+(if enabled) or `pandoc -f markdown -t docbook -o page.xml page.md`.
+Further down on this page there is some information about the DocBook
+format. Here we continue with an introduction to markdown.
+If you're not familiar with markdown, you should start by looking
+at the [markdown "basics" page] and the [markdown syntax description].
+Consult the [pandoc User's Guide] for information about pandoc's syntax
+for footnotes, tables, description lists, and other elements not present
+in standard markdown.

+Markdown is pretty intuitive, since it is based on email conventions.
+Here are some examples to get you started:

+## Headings
+
+For headings, prefix a line with one or more `#` signs:  one for a major heading,
+two for a subheading, three for a subsubheading.  Be sure to leave space before
+and after the heading.

+
+## Wiki links
+
+Links to other wiki pages are formed this way:  `[Page Name]()`.
+(Gitit converts markdown links with empty targets into wikilinks.)
+
+To link to a wiki page using something else as the link text:
+`[something else](Page Name)`.
+
+Note that page names may contain spaces and some special characters.
+They need not be CamelCase.  CamelCase words are *not* automatically
+converted to wiki links.
+
+Wiki pages may be organized into directories.  So, if you have
+several pages on wine, you may wish to organize them like so:
+
+    Wine/Pinot Noir
+    Wine/Burgundy
+    Wine/Cabernet Sauvignon
+
+Note that a wiki link `[Burgundy]()` that occurs inside the `Wine`
+directory will link to `Wine/Burgundy`, and not to `Burgundy`.
+To link to a top-level page called `Burgundy`, you'd have to use
+`[Burgundy](/Burgundy)`.
+
+To link to a directory listing for a subdirectory, use a trailing
+slash: `[Wine/]()` will link to a listing of the `Wine` subdirectory.

+# DocBook

+As DocBook is an XML format, opening and closing tags must match
+(`<tag>...</tag>`).

+
+## Headings
+
+A heading is given as the `<title>` element of a `<section>`:
+
+<pre>
+&lt;section&gt;
+ &lt;title&gt;Heading&lt;/title&gt;
+ &lt;simpara&gt;This is a top level section.&lt;/simpara&gt;
+ &lt;section&gt;
+  &lt;title&gt;Subheading&lt;/title&gt;
+  &lt;simpara&gt;This is a second level section.&lt;/simpara&gt;
+ &lt;/section&gt;
+&lt;/section&gt;
+</pre>
+
+## Wiki links
+
+Links to other wiki pages are formed this way:
+`<ulink url="Page Name">Page Name</ulink>`
+
+To link to a wiki page using something else as the link text:
+`<ulink url="Page Name">something else</ulink>`.
+
+Note that page names may contain spaces and some special characters.
+They need not be CamelCase.  CamelCase words are *not* automatically
+converted to wiki links.
+
+Wiki pages may be organized into directories.  So, if you have
+several pages on wine, you may wish to organize them like so:
+
+    Wine/Pinot Noir
+    Wine/Burgundy
+    Wine/Cabernet Sauvignon
+
+Note that a wiki link `<ulink url="Burgundy">Burgundy</ulink>`
+that occurs inside the `Wine` directory will link to `Wine/Burgundy`,
+and not to `Burgundy`. To link to a top-level page called `Burgundy`,
+you'd have to use `<ulink url="/Burgundy">Burgundy</ulink>`.
+
+To link to a directory listing for a subdirectory, use a trailing
+slash: `<ulink url="Wine/">Wine</ulink>` will link to a listing of
+the `Wine` subdirectory.

-      Wiki pages may be organized into directories. So, if you have
-      several pages on wine, you may wish to organize them like so:
-    </para>
-    <programlisting>
-Wine/Pinot Noir
-Wine/Burgundy
-Wine/Cabernet Sauvignon
-</programlisting>
-    <para>
-      Note that a wiki link <literal>[Burgundy]()</literal> that occurs
-      inside the <literal>Wine</literal> directory will link to
-      <literal>Wine/Burgundy</literal>, and not to
-      <literal>Burgundy</literal>. To link to a top-level page called
-      <literal>Burgundy</literal>, you'd have to use
-      <literal>[Burgundy](/Burgundy)</literal>.
-    </para>
-    <para>
-      To link to a directory listing for a subdirectory, use a trailing
-      slash: <literal>[Wine/]()</literal> will link to a listing of the
-      <literal>Wine</literal> subdirectory.
-    </para>
