I depends what you want. If you want to have:

http://my.wiki.site/w/ArticleName

but:

http://my.wiki.site/wiki/index.php?title=ArticleName&action=history

then leave it as it is (and point /w/ to /wiki/index.php as described).

It has become a convention to do the other way around, but
nobody says it has to be so.
