In eether case, the INSTALL instructions in the distributions should be clear about options (not suggesting to use "wiki" if a major option under the manual suggests the use of "w")* and should not be in conflict with the online manual.
Is there someone on-list with the necessary magic powers to fix it?

I'm sorry but I fail to see how this (from the INSTALL instructions):
Decompress the MediaWiki installation archive either on your server, or on your local machine and upload the directory tree. Rename it from "mediawiki-1.x.x" to something nice, like "wiki", since it'll be in your URL.

is not clear enough about not using 'wiki' in case of URL-rewriting/Short URLs into 'wiki', and about 'wiki' being just an *example* of naming ?
