The question about the Wiki software to use is still unanswered if I didn't miss anything.
I personally still would prefer DokuWiki or PMWiki.
Any opinions?
Of course! ;-)
I'd recommend choosing a wiki which uses a markup language for which Geany can do syntax highlighting. I find it helpful to write my wiki pages in my own editor before transferring them to the wiki.
I prefer Foswiki / TWiki, but there is not a lexer for them in Geany / SciTE, yet. (I'm working on one, but no promises on completion.)

While I agree that it would be great if wiki contributions could be written in Geany but I don't think that should limit our wiki selection.
There is a MarkDown plugin for DokuWiki which seems to work quite ok (just tested it on a test instance) and there is also a not yet released RestructuredText plugin[1]. I contacted the author already asking him whether he would release it as we could use it.
Geany supports both, MarkDown and RestructuredText. I personally hope the RestructuredText plugin will appear and be useful, as I know ReST better than MarkDown or any Wiki syntax and because we use ReST as well for Geany's documentation.
I don't care much about which syntax the wiki markup is using. The default DokuWiki syntax is fine for me as I already use a bunch of instance of this piece of software.
+1 for Dokuwiki.
So when will be the going live? ;)
