It might be helpful for some language wikis to link in a free font this

Right now on such sites there tends to be a little English link at the
top such as 'font help' leading to a page like this telling you how to
download and install a font:

It sounds like a good way to provide the STIX fonts for rendering MathML
as well, since currently one has to point users to a font help page just
like that, and hope they don't give up before they get to installing the
fonts and seeing the nice-looking equations.
