There are no specific guidelines as such, but I often edit out these things:
Backticks for highlighting something - please don't do that & let's use backticks only for code.
Excessive bold/italics, specially for things like: I want to do this but WHY isn't it Working
Needless to say ALL CAPS stuff gets removed out.
I'm likely to convert "manual" list ...

FWIW, here's what I try to adhere to:
Italics when referring to UI elements
Press the Upload button to upload your image
(Example):
Backticks for inline code
(Example):
function abc();
Four-space indents for code blocks
(Example):
function abc() {
alert("Boo");
}
Backticks when refering to on-screen elements that are not GUI elements
(Example)...
