Markdown is pretty similar to the wiki formatting and very simple.

You can look at a cheatsheet if you login to the blog: 
https://webkit.org/wp/wp-admin/post.php?post=4300&action=edit

I have also used this HTML to Markdown converter before: 
http://domchristie.github.io/to-markdown/

The pages are created:

https://webkit.org/documentation/b3/ loads /docs/b3/bare-bones-backend.md
https://webkit.org/documentation/b3/intermediate-representation/ loads 
/docs/b3/intermediate-representation.md

Once those files are added to SVN, they will get picked up by the site. I can 
change those to point to other names if you want something different.
