I have looked around but couldn't find anything about it. Markdoc is labeled as a wiki but I don't seem to be able and see a way to edit a page via the browser and further more see the history of page changes. Am I missing something?

Markdoc is a "static website generator". It does not (and will never) include support for dynamic editing, as that goes against the fundamental nature of the tool.

The correct way of using the tool is to keep the website's source files in a version control system. For example, I have a markdoc site hosted at http://www.penwatch.net/mwind3.5/ , where the source is hosted at https://github.com/LiaungYip/morrowind-dnd3.5 . Note the ./wiki directory which contains all the source files with full version history.

To set up something similar to this, see the instructions at http://www.penwatch.net/mwind3.5/website_instructions .
