I'm not a Wiki expert, but have been using TikiWiki for a while and very much like it. It does everything you say with the possible exception of CSS. It may very well support CSS, I just don't need it so haven't investigated. It also allows for the use of templates that can be applied globally or by each user (these may be the CSS bit, again, I just haven't played). User logins can be pre-assigned or user driven so you can control who does what. I think you can turn on/off the CamelCase feature.

I've been experimenting with a couple of different wiki packages, but am always interested in others' thoughts and recommendations. In particular, I've looked at MediaWiki and PmWiki. Of the two, I like MediaWiki's 'completeness', but it's also quite slow and doesn't strike me as being particularly (or easily?) customizable. PmWiki is probably my current candidate, but again I'd like to make sure I'm not missing a more obvious choice. My shopping list for the ideal wiki application is: - wiki entries preferably stored in MySQL tables. I'm not adamant about this (eg PmWiki uses files rather than a db backend), but it would suit my purposes better to be able to draw from the wiki tables from the front page of my blog to show lists of recently added and recently updated wiki entries - non-reliance on CamelCase wiki links. Many of my characters etc use joined CamelCase names (eg KillFork and DangerSpoon), and to avoid confusion I'd rather explicitly define links to wiki content - ability to categorize wiki entries - ability to compare history of wiki edits and easily reinstate older edits if wiki pages get 'graffiti'd' - ability to allow others to edit / create wiki entries, thru a user id / password system, so that regulars who would like to participate can do so - ability to customize presentation of wiki pages, presumably through CSS etc, so that I can maintain the 'look and feel' of my blog thru the wiki content - PHP based, though my host does run Perl, so if the killer wiki app is a Perl-based one, I'm sure I can muddle thru implementing it If anyone has any recommendations for other wiki applications I should look at before making a decision, I'd love to hear from you!
