I just thought of something that is probably the problem (smacking myself in the forehead here).
I originally set up the wiki infrastructure at knitting-and.com/wiki People linked to the long form of URLs there I set up short urls - the incoming long urls were working & redirecting to the short versions
I moved the wiki infrastructure to knitting-and.com/w with articles at knitting-and.com/wiki Long urls are coming into the OLD wiki long URLs at knitting-and.com/wiki/ So I need to set up the old version of the long urls from knitting-and.com/wiki/ to redirect as well as the current version.
Does that sound right or completely insane?

Sorry, I changed it back to what I originally had because of the high amount of traffic I have on short urls.
So it was short urls working, long urls redirecting to index.php with the current setup (.htaccess and LocalSettings that I originally posted).

Long urls aren't redirecting to index.php?

A few things you can check/try:
RewriteRule ^/?wiki(/.*)?$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L] RewriteRule ^/*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L]I just gave it a go but it's returning a 404 error if you try and
look at
a wiki page with a long url.
If I use the short URL code from http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL it will return
http://www.knitting-and.com/wiki/index.php?title=Lacy_Gloves_(Vintage)with
a 404 or http://www.knitting-and.com/w/index.php?title=Lacy_Gloves_(Vintage)< http://www.knitting-and.com/wiki/index.php?title=Lacy_Gloves_(Vintage)
with the correct page but a long url
I don't have access to the apache root configuration.
