C. Sauer, C. Smith, & T. Benz. WikiCreole: A Common Wiki Markup.

Abstract: In this paper, we describe the wiki markup language WikiCreole, how it was developed, and related work. Creole does not replace existing markup, but instead enables wiki users to transfer content seamlessly across wikis, and for novice users to contribute more easily. In proposing a subset of markup elements that is as non-controversial as possible, this markup has evolved from existing wiki markup, hence the name Creole: a stable language that originated from a non-trivial combination of two or more languages.
