If you are still monitoring the list, I probably would try to merge xml 
dumps (only --current should be enough for search), then I'd import 
merged dump into "common" wiki. Should not be too hard, if not 
performance issues for very large wikis. If your wikis aren't very 
large, that is possible. However, that is offline slow process and 
adding of new pages has to be performed with slow re-merge. One may use 
remote api calls at individual wikis to duplicate-write every saved 
"individual" article into the "common" wiki, however an extension has do 
be developed for that. This way is much faster and keeps in sync.
