Out of curiosity I had a look at how Redmine syntax looks like and for
me this looked a lot like "not Markdown". I did some search and the
syntax seems to be actually called "Textile":
https://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/41244

And there even exists a way to convert this to actual Markdown
automatically:

I did a try with the pandoc "try it out" page and this seems to work
just fine: https://pandoc.org/try/

GitHub Wikis (and GitHub pages, too) use actual Markdown and there is a
nice online editor to have direct feedback on how the result will look
like (you can still write plain Markdown text but get a rendering
immediately):
