I don't think those instructions are to install MediaWiki, from what I see in the previous page they show how to "publish official Fedora Documentation Project work to the docs.fedoraproject.org website".
If you want to install MediaWiki, I suggest you follow the instructions on the MediaWiki website: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_guide
I suggest you unpack the distribution under /var/www as that will probably save you trouble with SELinux. If you unpack it under /var/www/html/mediawiki you will be able to access it right away under http://your.server.com/mediawiki/.
I suggest you go ahead and try to make it work, if you have specific problems or questions after that, please post them and we'll help you! I have been maintaining a MediaWiki installation under CentOS 5 here and it's been working great so far.
HTH, Filipe
