There's no good list of all GFDL wikis -
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:FDLR> is a very small list,
WikiIndex.org is good but doesn't categorise by license. A good place
to start may be http://s23.org/wikistats/mediawikis_html.php which
lists wikis by size.

The hardest part might be making them care enough to want to change
it. Is there a short, convincing, way of explaining why wikis should
switch and how they should do it?

It seems from the discussion that most want to switch:
http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Licensing_update
But there will be exceptions, which is fine.
I'm not seeing any reason to dual-license them (unless individual
wikis want that). The fact Wikimedia was forced to do so is
complicating the issue.
