How about going back to the good old big fat Edit button that used to be
on the original C2 wiki implementation? And how about putting that
button both at the top and and the bottom of the pages, and in the case
of WP, beside each section header?
If the ability to edit a page is so central to a wiki, then maybe the
button or link you click on to edit should be given more screen real
estate.
