I would suggest you post a request on the Google Docs forum:

Subject: [WikiEducator] Google Docs download feature to Open Office; possible 
for Mediawiki?

Hi Everyone,

I've been using Google Docs to "download" MS Word documents straight into Open 
Office. (There's a conversion feature that downloads docs into pdf, html, text 
and word. 

If there was an option to do it directly from Google Docs into Mediawiki 
syntax, that would be great.

Does anyone have ideas about how to go about this - pitching to Google that 
it's in their interest to do enable this functionality?

It would save lots of time.... BTW: I've noticed you tend to need a fair bit of 
RAM to convert larger documents from Open Office directly into mediawiki 
syntax, and if Google could do it for us, so much the better.

PS. I've documented the uploading process -
