Unfortunately that won't work for our workflow. My translators are on
different continents from me and aren't well versed in mediawiki stuff.
Since we use the collection extension to print our manuals I was
planning to provide Word documents for them to use, both in English and
in the target language, and then update the wiki based on markups.

Use the translate extension!
Since you admit human proofreaders will have to go through and
verify translations, why not perform both tasks at the same time.
The translate extension allows for connection to a translation
service and can auto fill the translation for you. At the same time
a translator can make adjustments so you're not creating lots of
pages with inaccurate translations.
