You still have two errors.  1) you need to put \markup before a
newly-defined markup function, and 2) once you make a scheme list by
starting with #'(, you need to put Scheme values, not LilyPond values.

 c'^\markup \woodfing #'(#t #t #t #t #t #t)

should work for you.

Have you chapter 6 of the Notation Reference for 2.12?

Thanks,
