For a large-scale site, there's going to be a lot of administration work to be done, so it doesn't matter if the system is difficult to set up and configure.
As it turns out, MediaWiki isn't really hard at all :-)
Wordpress, on the other hand, set out with the mission of being the 'cheap and cheerful' program that would dominate the market for blogging software. Everything about Wordpress is designed to make it easy to set up a Wordpress site quickly and configure it easily. Wordpress does scale OK to fairly large blogs and high traffic if you SuperCache it.
Multi-user WordPress is a bit arsier. Comparable faff to MediaWiki setup.
apt-get install wordpress, and let dpkg handle the rest. it's really easy.
