== Using it ==
I'm not going into a detailed comparison of various wikis, trying to argue which is best. I do want to point out that MediaWiki does not use CamelCase words in order to make a link. This means a lot to all the Irish people of the world, and also the marketers who seem pretty convinced of the coolness of McWords like ThinkPad, etc.
MediaWiki syntax is easy to learn, and easy to use. In fact, you might already be using it without even knowing it.
