I have been trying to do it by following the steps given in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:WordToWiki but all in vain, not getting it.

Best way is to use Open Office

1. Open the Word document in Open Office Writer.
2. Go to File / Export.
3. Under File format choose MediaWiki (.txt).
4. Click Save (or Export).
5. Open the new file in a text editor and copy the contents to the clipboard.
6. Paste the text to a Wikipedia article.

That is copy and pasted from the document you linked to.

For Open Office 4.15 you have to add the extension Sun Wiki Publisher 1.1 with the extension manager.

If you don't want to install OpenOffice, another option is the Word2MediaWikiPlus extension.

In Microsoft Word 2016 I use the plugin "Microsoft Office Word Add-in For MediaWiki" (already suggested by Jake). https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=12298

To make it work in Microsoft Word 2016 (version 16.0). I followed these instructions but replaced "15.0" in the instruction to "16.0",

Microsoft has released an add-in for Microsoft Word that lets you export a doc file to MediaWiki formatting (as a .txt file). It's fairly decent.

If you're going to be doing this a lot, consider installing the FCK Editor. This has a Paste From Word button.

The easiest way may be to install LibreOffice (http://libreoffice.org) and open the Word document in its Writer application, then from there do Export and save to Media Wiki txt file. The Copy-paste that text into the Media Wiki at edit mode

but there was no way for adding images automatically that won't work for libreoffice or the word plugin.

If you have only a few docs for converting to the mediawiki, it is ok.

But if there ar more the it is great deal of time and effort.

For autom. Imageupload the only working solution was the discontinued project Word2MediaWikiPlus.

If somethings has changed in the last years let it me now.

But if not there are some solutions with work without image upload (if I found them i will add these entry here): - on webserer projekt which generated very good wiki markup output there , i can' t remember the name. - a commandline tool that do the conversion as input and output file
