+### Step 4b: Converting pages
+
+#### Converting to Markdown
+
+There is a Python script for converting from the Mediawiki format to Markdown in [[mithro]]'s conversion repository at <http://github.com/mithro/media2iki>. *WARNING:* While the script tries to preserve everything is can, Markdown syntax is not as flexible as Mediawiki so the conversion is lossy!
+
+ # The script needs the mwlib library to work
+ # If you don't have easy_install installed, apt-get install python-setuptools
+ sudo easy_install mwlib
+
+ # Get the repository
+ git clone git://github.com/mithro/media2iki.git
+ cd media2iki
+
+ # Do a conversion
+ python mediawiki2markdown.py --no-strict --no-debugger <my mediawiki file> > output.md
