On the page you cite I read in the descriptions of attributes:

    raw     0 (default), 1 If set to 1, the score code is interpreted as a
            complete LilyPond file. Use this option if you want to
            create more complex scores. If the score language (lang
            attribute) is not set to lilypond, this attribute is
            ignored.

So preumably the OP would need to use

<score raw="1">
...
</score>

here.  Without him actually showing _how_ he uses "LilyPond in our
Mediawiki", of course, that is pure guesserola.
