Yes, you have taken the iCal file rather than the feed.

In Google Calendar, you need to Settings -> Calendars -> Browse
interesting Calendars -> Add by URL

At that point, paste in the XML feed URL:

   
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/wikimedia.org_1co89h9c5s99d0jt9ld1tlsols%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic

Then you're done. :-)

I imagine Mike's solution's URL might work too if you have
philosophical issues about other people using proprietary software:

  webcal://h2vx.com/ics/https%3A//meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours
