MediaWiki to Markdown

Convert MediaWiki markup into Markdown.

Example

MediaWiki
== Heading ==
'''bold''' and [[Page]]
Markdown
## Heading

**bold** and [Page](Page)

What it keeps

  • == headings ==
  • Bold and italic
  • Lists, links and tables

Where it struggles

  • Templates ({{…}}) are simplified or dropped
  • Category and namespace tags are removed
  • <ref> footnotes become plain text

Frequently asked questions

What happens to templates?

Template calls have no Markdown equivalent, so they're simplified to text or removed.

Do internal links convert?

Yes — [[Page]] becomes a Markdown link you can point wherever you like.

Is it processed locally?

Yes — nothing is uploaded.
