I've created a template that's intended for use on feedback pages where users report lots of bugs and issues:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Tracked
This could be useful in helping non-technical users quickly understand the status of issues that are being reported on-wiki.
However, it would be even more useful if the bug status could be automatically regularly updated according to what's in Bugzilla.
Is there a bot already that can update bugzilla status information in wiki pages? If not, is anyone in the list up for taking a crack at it?
An alternative on this is to use a gadget or site JS bit to fetch the status live via Bugzilla's JSON-RPC interface -- that's easiest if all the pages are centralized in one wiki of course, so may not be ideal for pages on the other wikis.
