I would suggest taking a look at the markup language for Confluence and the porting tools for moving from MoinMoin before choosing it. The markup language uses the same token to open and close a macro, which I consider a poor linguistic design. The porting tools for MediaWiki are pretty primitive and we found that the available macros provide less functionality than those available for MediaWiki (and MoinMoin -- I work with both types). The port of any significant content could prove to be non-trivial.
