I found an easier way to do this. Install openoffice.org-wiki-publisher. Open 
the MS Word document in OpenOffice. Now: File->Export. In the dialog box, 
change the "File Format:" to "MediaWiki (.txt)". Click on Export in the dialog 
box. If you're running WikiMedia as your Wiki software, you should be fine. 
Other, edit the .txt file as needed for your Wiki markup. Now cut'n'paste into 
your Wiki.
