This is only true if you want almost no functionality of out MediaWiki and
you want it to be very slow. MediaWiki is incredibly difficult to properly
run and requires at least some minor sysadmin experience to do so. There's
a reason that almost every MediaWiki install in existence is completely out
of date.

When we get to Wordpress's ease of use, then we can assume this.
