Can MediaWiki become portable?

Pardon my ignorance on this issue, I'm a techie novice. I see on this page http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_on_MoWeS_Portable_%28Win...
that MoWeS Portable includes MediaWiki which can be run from a stick. And I see that someone here at PortableApps installed Portable XAMPP Lite and MediaWiki, but it's not clear to me if this can integrate fully with PortableApps. Seems like if it were that simple, it would be listed on the page of portable apps.

they are
