I'm an administrator on two wikis, but I still have to enter math problems to edit.  Is it possible for me to setup a group to skip that process, or does it have to be done by Wikkii?

On Advanced Hosting wikis, you control Captcha in LocalSettings.php.
Look for ConfirmEdit and $wgCaptchaClass settings; check out http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit for more info.

I didn't install it though.  It seems to be on Wikkii's part of the server.

Then you have to ask whoever has Cpanel access to each of those wikis.

The captcha should only kick in if you are trying to edit or create a page with an external URL.

And we are not actually using the math captcha so not sure why you are having to fill in math problems.

There's actually a lot of pages that have an external URL though.  I think the XML backup thing that I made for the farmer wikis that I also use a lot generally, even with full backups, contains external urls back to wikkii.com and the Community Wiki.
