I loaded the MediaWiki instance with the contents of enwiki-latest-pages-articles.xml; does that dump not contain all content minus history? Downloading the enormous multi-part dumps just to obtain the mediawiki namespace contents would not be feasible due to equipment limitations on this end. I have all the applicable extensions installed; thanks for the heads up anyway.
