Hi

Mediawiki is available in EPEL repo.

 
IMHO MediaWiki is the best software for wikis, is the one more documented, more used and with more extensions; but in the end is a matter of what do you want to do and how much magic you want to have in your wiki :D

I think that if all you want is a website where everyone or just a few could edit, ANY wiki would do the job, but in the moment that you want a little more specific stuff, MW is the one that have done better results with me, specially for the extensions, there are A LOT of things you can do with them. For instance, now I'm doing some semantic stuff (listing pages and properties dinamically, withouth hard-coding it, with beautiful code)

The downside of choosing wikis is that when you decided one, you should stick on it because the wiki syntax is different among them.

Bye,
Andres
