Thanks!

I made some good progress tonight, first off to get tables to work
just required asking pandoc to produce GitHub Flavour Markdown:

Getting the python snippets to display nicely on GitHub both in
mediawiki format at markdown was surprisingly simple:

The good news is this means most of the pages now look pretty
when browsing my latest test branch on GitHub :)

There are still plenty of things which might be desirable, first
amongst them is getting the URLs to work (ideally preserving
the old wiki page URL patterns to make server migration
easier).
