Existing documentation in Microsoft Word files can be converted to Markdown using Pandoc. After installing:

  1. Open a command prompt in the directory where the Word document is located. This can be done by typing "cmd" in the address bar in Windows Explorer.
  2. Execute pandoc my_word_doc.docx -o my_document.md
  3. Copy and paste the contents of my_document.md into the wiki editor.
