It is most likely that you have tried to upload an image that is too large for the Wiki. Images should be 60 Kb or less in size when using the binary file upload.

The Moodle wiki does not have all the features of MediaWiki.  It is not possible to grade a MediaWiki page or edits of users, but it is in a wiki used by Moodle.
There is no in-built grading facility in the wiki but you can manually add a grade item in the [[Gradebook]] called (for example) "yourwikiname" and enter your grades there.
