Nice!

In 

https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/lib/linguist/languages.yml

I see this:

,----
| Emacs Lisp:
|   type: programming
|   lexer: Scheme
|   color: "#c065db"
|   aliases:
|   - elisp
|   - emacs
|   primary_extension: .el
|   filenames:
|   - .emacs
|   extensions:
|   - .emacs
`----


so doesn't '#+BEGIN_SRC elisp' just work? 

And shouldn't '(("emacs-lisp" . "elisp")) be the value of `org-gfm-lang'?

HTH,
