In my scenario, it would simply be documents -- searchable. I don't know
if Wikipedia's stuff creates a better index against the database, though.
It would be nice to also include attachments to the wiki entries - say if I
wanted to include a patch diff or code snippet, or perhaps a pdf.

I want to set up a full documention base, using Wiki<something>, to
supplement my work as a Sysadmin. I wonder if someone has done this
before - for example, from things of compile time flags, to system notes,
to upgrade instructions, etc. etc... I see Wiki as a potentially good
application/tool for this.
Of course, my question is specific to the code used (phase3) in Wikipedia.
I'm not sure if our Wiki software is particularly good for that.
OK, could someone please make summary of differences of ours vs. others
Wikis ?
Phase 3 Typical other wiki
talk/user pages are completely separate talk/user pages are just normal pages
math support none
no subpages subpages
good support for UTF-8 some of them don't support
anything but 8859. Yuck!
What more ?
