There's a request to allow a configurable extension (.mediawiki would help importing in some wikis, see https://github.com/Git-Mediawiki/Git-Mediawiki/issues/42). You should at least make this stg like length(".mw") so that the next search&replace for ".mw" finds this.

Also, note that your solution works for using Git-Mediawiki in a read-only way, but if you start modifying and pushing such files, you'll get into trouble. It probably makes sense to issue a warnign in such case.
