I just attempted to create my first wiki document, and mediawiki would make life much easier on many levels. I am not a experienced Github Guru, but I'm certainly decent with a computer. Your documentation for contributing could use some work, but that's probably because it appears I'm the first one to actually attempt to contribute.
I went ahead and installed my Github Desktop client, because I didn't want to deal with any terminal crap. Using textedit and a Markdown style guide, I was able to write up two paragraphs and insert a picture on the PDP, and also tried to get rid of instances of the old PDB. I realize when I go to commit that I didn't fork, and just changed the base branch. Using media-wiki would be much easier, but we might not have to buy our own hosting. Many teams (including my own), have web hosting much too overkill for our little needs. We can create a separate website there, and until you've gotten enough attention to warrant a larger plan, or even your own.
We've only used a measly 750 MB of our allocated 5 GB shared storage, which should be plenty for the starting wiki. If you're interested, I would love to help you out on this. This solves quite a lot of the problems you had with a mediawiki solution. We've already paying for the service as a team, and already maintaining our portion of it, which doesn't require much more to maintain another subdomain of it. We can just make you a subdomain, such as firstwiki.nwcougarrobotics.com , which I can set up for you in just a few hours. there are Captcha systems we can enable, or perhaps even trying to integrate a ChiefDelphi login scheme. Yes, we still have to manually import all of the data manually, but it appears you were going to do that any way. And I'm ready at a moments notice to set this up.
