Mediawiki setup

Today I installed mediawiki - this is an amazing piece of software using PHP and MySQL that is great for documentation of software projects.

I followed the links here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MediaWiki

But I really found this to be more useful:
https://wiki.debian.org/MediaWiki

There was a broken link for getting the tar ball for mediawiki. Besides that, there was one step missing - to create a user called wikiuser in MySQL. Other than that, it worked fine.
