I've seen tools out there (powershell based) that move SharePoint Wikis to new SharePoint wiki libraries and even that was quite complexed due to the hyperlinks within the Wiki Page being stored on a special Properties Bag on the List Item.
With that in mind, I would suspect all pages from media wiki would need copying over in isolation and then scan all the hyperlinks on each page and remap them to the new urls. It really does depend on how complex the wiki pages are in terms of linking to each other and also whether there's any media attachments on the pages e.g. images, flash/wmv files etc. With this in mind, you may find even if there is a tool out there it's never going to work 100% and you'll end up manually chopping it all up anyway!

BUT - if it's just 100 pages and this is the only MediaWiki migration you are ever likely to do then I would tell the client to do it manually as it will likely take less time and effort then developing a tool to migrate the pages. OR - you can build the MediaWiki to SharePoint Wiki migration tool and put it up onto CodePlex for others to share :) 2008/9/15 Michael Nemtsev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> Did someone try to migrate MediaWiki to sharepoint?! Client has about 100 pages in mediawiki and going to start manual page-by-page migration all pages to sharepoint wiki sites. I tried to find any tools, but everything I found were FlexiWiki import tool from CKS, albeit there were mention that these guys are working on other wiki engines tools (including mediawiki) to export them. But I found nothing else except those proposals.
