Markdown is a light-weight, text-only format for writing rich text (i.e., bold text, italics, hyperlinks, lists, etc.).
Here is the original Markdown specification: https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/
Here is a more-complete specification based on the original markdown: https://commonmark.org/
Markdown is widely used, such as by Stack Overflow (https://stackoverflow.com/editing-help), GitHub (https://docs.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax), and Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/wiki/markdown).
Resolution: I commit to resolving this question according to whichever option gets the most support (i.e., "no" if %chance is less than 50, "yes" if % chance is greater than 50, and "N/A" if % chance is exactly 50). See here for a request to make this kind of thing a feature: https://manifold.markets/JiaobeiMandos/should-manifold-markets-implement-t)
