On en.wikipedia, the texvc program has been updated fairly
recently  
to include support for both \displaystyle and \textstyle.
If you're  
talking about your own wiki, you might consider upgrading
your texvc  
to the latest one available. If that's not possible, I
don't think  
there is any way to force displaystyle. You *can* force
textstyle  
with a nasty hack involving \begin ...
\end, but no  
such luck with displaystyle. (Maybe someone else can prove
me wrong.)
