  Isn't the advantage that epytext is unmaintained as of 2008 and reSt is the 
documentation format most python projects use? For my part I've extensively 
worked with Sphinx's reSt whereas pywikibot is the first time I've ever seen 
epytext. It would be nice for pywikibot newcomers not to need to learn an 
obsolete documentation format unless we have significant reason to do so.

  Per chance could this be familiarity rather than readability? `@param` and 
`:param:` are identically readable to me, and if anything I find the former 
more jarring because I haven't it within documentation before.
