Upgrade
I will upgrade most MediaWiki installations for $299.
If your wiki is older than version 1.14, you should upgrade to the latest version. To find out what version you have, simply go to the Special:Version page of your wiki.
"The release manager has issued a strong recommendation that versions not listed above are not used. They can contain critical security vulnerabilities and other major bugs, including possible data loss and/or corruption." -http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle
Remember, versions not included in this table will not receive security updates. That means you need to maintain the latest version.
| Version | Release date | End-of-life |
|---|---|---|
| 1.16.x | Not released | |
| 1.15.x | June 10, 2009 | June 2010 |
| 1.14.x | February 22, 2009 | February 2010 |
New releases of mediawiki are done "quarterly" 4-6 months, and the last release was in June, 2009

Considerations
Extensions: Not all extensions are compatible with later versions of MediaWiki. Make sure you know what you are doing, or get help before you upgrade your wiki.
