Basically read the entire MediaWiki Handbook, which has four large sections:

• for readers
• for editors (this section tells the most about wikitext markup, naturally)
• for moderators
• for administrators

Also melt your brain on the Editor's index, which gives a pretty full description of what is possible on Wikipedia.

A solid introduction to Wikipedia editing could easily fill up a year of college-level work. And that would be a fun course to teach. But on Wikipedia, everything you see is built by and for people who self-educate. I suggest that you take some notes on a user sub-page with links to the manuals you are reading. Also see the {{Google custom}} template, which has a table of examples which link to a list of places I have found handy for answering questions that come up in the course of Wikipedia editing (I wrote the table of examples, so I put in the links I use routinely when looking up answers to questions on the Help desk).
