I wanted to practice GFM markdown, so I picked this page more or
less at random. I flattened out the text a little. It's not as
interesting, but will be easier to translate. Use it if it looks
like an improvement. If not, at least I got some practice out of the deal!

Encoding.default_external was chosen over
Encoding.default_internal because File.read is
returning Encoding.default_external, therefore
we should align with it. Alternatively, we could
force both of them to be Encoding.default_internal.

However, ideally this should be determined by different
projects. For example, some projects might want to use
an encoding different to what GitLab is using.

This might not happen soon though.
