What the German deadspace wiki did is they used Special:Export to export some pages from your wiki (example: http://deadspace.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikia.js?action=history). When a page is exported in this manner, there is an option to include the full history page with it. That creates an XML file on your computer which is a local copy of the wiki page.

If you then use Special:Import to import that page to a different wiki from the XML file, all of that content in that file is added to the wiki, including any edit histories that you chose to include when doing the export. You can see this here: http://de.deadspace.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikia.js?action=history where your contributions to the German deadspace wiki are showing up on that page because it was imported with full edit history. And because there is a page on the wiki that has edits associated with your account, they add to your edit count and show up on your masthead on that wiki.

See Help:Export for more information about exporting and importing wiki pages.
