Which Wiki software do you like the best?

From a user standpoint?

From an editor standpoint?

From an admin standpoint?

Mediawiki. It is the most powerful, most versatile and seems to have the largest functions capacity and userbase.

I haven't created any of my own wiki sites, however the vast bulk seem to be powered by MediaWiki. That's probably what I would go for if I were ever to create my own wiki based website.

My vote is for mediawiki too. Easy to install, easy to use. I use an install as my organizer for domains, clients, articles I want to keep a copy of, ebook repository, notes... you get the idea.

That's what I was thinking, but I wanted to see what others thought.

I've installed it and set up a site on it before. I really found it to be a pain to use. It's very unintuitive, but as you said, it is the most powerful. Guess I'll jump back in again.

well obviously mediawiki.
it is most used and it has also proven that it can handle really large loads with wikipedia.
although media wiki lacks a bit userfreindly ness for admin's as they have to handle most of the configuration by using localsettings.php. but still its performance has no match.

I grabbed the latest version of MediaWiki 1.7.1. It only supports PHP5. OUCH!

I am trying 1.6.8 now.

Mediawiki has the most feautures but unfortunatelly it is very hard to learn how to use it.

In my case I wanted something easier, and I decided to check wikkaWiki.

BTW there is a great wiki software comparison here : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wiki_software#PHP_4_or_5
