Wiki really isn't that hard to learn. At the very least, all you need to 
know is how to click on "edit page" and type away. The only place where 
you'll need to know some mark-up, is if you want to do bold text, 
italics, headings, etc. And even there, moin-moin wiki is kind enough to 
explain this to us at the bottom of the editor, so learning how to use 
the wiki only requires that someone takes 5 minutes to show you how to 
use it.

Although, I can understand how a wiki can be totally confusing when you 
look at it the first time. I was completely confused when I started 
using wikis for the first time. Mediawiki is quite a bit easier to get 
started with, since it has a very nice interface, on the other side, 
MoinMoin is quite nice with the RightSideBar theme as well.
