I am looking to set up an internal wiki for our development/design team. The key feature I am looking for is a very simple editor with revision history.

In addition to phpdoc-style inline comments, I need to document XML structures, details on concepts and practices, write HOWTOs and so on. At the moment, I am using simple OpenOffice documents for that, but I'm unhappy with it and looking...

I cannot delete the Wiki page, or add any pages to it. Here's what I see - there's no way to delete it as far as I can tell. Any help greatly appreciated, don't want to start...

I was searching the net for something like a wiki database, just like wikipedia but instead stores structured content, editable by users. What I was looking for was an online database accessible by everyone where people can design the schema and data with proper versioning of both schema and data. I couldn't find any such site. I am not ...

I would ...
