You can use OpenOffice.org (OOo) to import/export docs to/from a MediaWiki. To export documents to Wiki you can use the Wiki Publisher extension for OOo: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/wikipublisher (adds a Send - MediaWiki Server menu item and dialog to help publish the document on a MediaWiki). To export from Wiki back to OOo, you can use the Collections Extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Collection I use both on the OOo Wiki http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page (although I haven't used the WikiPublisher extension for a while now). The Collections extension to export to ODT gets used a lot on the OOo Wiki,and works quite nicely.
