Forum:Import Wikia database dump into Mediawiki?

I have a small Wikia database dump that I'd like to import into a fresh install of Mediawiki, but whenever I try it, it never seems to work right. I'm using the Special:Import page on Mediawiki. Sometimes pages don't come out complete and the templates never look right. Am I using the wrong tool for this type of work? Is there anyway to correctly import a Wikia database into Mediawiki?
