Currently http://matplotlib.org/devdocs/api/markers_api.html#module-matplotlib.markers just has marker codes and a description of the marker; it would be nice to have a picture of what each marker looks like as a 3rd column.

It's the second bullet point in #7342 (which has a few more related items).

that might be a good topic to be converted into a more in-depth tutorial (maybe on extending a basic plot or something?)

another thing you could do for this API page is to include a link to the thumbnail of the example @WeatherGod links to above. You could add this in the README file so that the thumbnail shows up above the API list. E.g., with a .. figure:: directive
