Hi James, I'm one of the Tryphon sysadmin. Let me assure you that rivendell.tryphon.org is actively maintained and monitored. The mediawiki release used is provided by the squeeze debian package. We're watching changes and rollbacking spammer "contributions". The database is backup each night, etc ... To fight spam more efficiently, the user subscription could change in a near future to use more strict rules. For example, it could be a manual check to accept only lists.rivendellaudio.org users. We studied wiki engine migrations (by using dokuwiki for example). But there are no automatic tool to fill a new dokuwiki from the current mediawiki. A complete "rewriting" (a lot of copy/pastes too) will be necessary and require a lot of time. But we're available to study evolutions on this important tool for the Rivendell community.
