Tony,
I big is that list? I gave up at 2500 rows.
I would strongly recommend using a proper database rather than a wiki.
If you're making data freely available, the excellent Dabble DB
provides a free service.
http://www.dabbledb.com/commons/
Dabble provides lots of features for filtering and searching the data.
It also has a strong set of import tools.
