Mediawiki has for a long time been LibreJS incompatible because of the
architecture of MediaWiki itself.  It generates JavaScript dynamically
through a special application endpoint.  I looked into this awhile ago
and it would take a good amount of hacking the MediaWiki source to
make it output JS that LibreJS will be happy with.

tl;dr - not a problem that will be solved any time soon.
