Interesting, but not easy to come up with a concise list of possible values 
for these features ...

So which kinds of reasoning are there?

Again: which kinds of reasoning engines are there to choose from?

Maybe this is not so relevant form a user perspective. A wikis that stores 
deductions and a wiki that (quickly) computes them on request might behave 
very similar in concrete applications. The format, too, is difficult to 
classify: essentially everything can be represented somehow using RDF, but 
even dedicated RDF stores often do often not store things internally using a 
strict RDF structure (but use relational database schemas).

Overall, I think one should focus on "observable" features and ignore how 
exactly they are implemented. This helps with maintenance too: I typically 
change implementation methods more frequently than user-level features, which 
are more stable.
