A particular type of vandal, mainly spammers, should be the number one
concern. Yes, there are active spambots out there that add tons of spammy
links onto Wikis. Any new and upcoming Internet thing needs to be
prepared to handle Spammers. Yes, they really are dirty enough to spam
*anything*. Just an issue of how large a target you need to be before
they start writing bots to attack.
