You can paste rich text into the Visual Editor. The wikitext it produces usually needs some cleaning up afterward (bold headings, inconsistent list markup, etc), but it's probably the easiest for non-technical folks.

You might like to give https://pandoc.org/ a try?
Thanks.
For cli users, pandoc is probably the best choice. And I would certainly consider it as the conversion engine when standing up a new service to convert docx to Wikitext.
When I said "Our users have found...", I meant non-technical users who want to contribute to the wiki and have existing MS Word content.
Best regards,
