The following politely redirects all requests for

the wiki's root (main page), rather than sending a forbidden error.
Note that (a) in this example, I'm using the "Short URL" setup where
/wiki is the short path and /wikix is the raw path; (b) the first rule
performs the redirect for the short URL; and (c) the second and third
lines perform the raw URL redirect, which requires poking around on the
query string.
RewriteRule ^/wiki/Special:Export /wiki/ [R=permanent,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} Special:Export
RewriteRule ^/wikix/.* /wiki/ [R=permanent,L]
This won't stop someone from accessing localized URL of Special:Export.
