Documentation for vim help file markup

Is there a complete source of documentation on the markup format used in vim help files? :help write-local-help provides some info but does not, for example, document the markup used to indicate quoted sections.

update: I've also discovered this post on the vim-use mailing list which provides slightly more info than the afore-mentioned help entry.

I did find the following two additional references:

:e $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/help.vim

This will indicate you how vim colours its own help files.

:help write-local-help

will also show you an example.
