+Changing Wiki Syntax
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ Vimwiki currently ships with 3 syntaxes: Vimwiki (default), Markdown (markdown), and MediaWiki (media)
+
+ If you would prefer to use either Markdown or MediaWiki syntaxes, set the following option in your .vimrc:
+ ```
+     let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/vimwiki/',
+                           \ 'syntax': 'markdown', 'ext': '.md'}]
+ ```
