The easiest way to install this is with Package Control.

- Bring up the Command Palette (Command+Shift+p on OS X, Control+Shift+p on Linux/Windows).
- Select "Package Control: Install Package" (it'll take a few seconds)
- Select Mediawiker when the list appears.
Package Control will automatically keep Mediawiker up to date with the latest version.
First find your Sublime Text 2 Packages folder:
- OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/
