Oh.

Well, that's bad.  But people will choose the wrong tools; I don't think
that's evidence that MediaWiki's Broken As Designed.

"Too powerful and complex to administer"?

It needs administration?  In a small organization?

I set one up at my previous employers, and used it to take all my notes,
which required exactly zero administration: I just slapped it on a box,
and I was done.

And my successor is *very* happy about it.  :-)
