    Hi Folks,

    Can anyone recommend an open source wiki application please? I'm looking for something to organise network information, diagrams, notes etc.

    TIA!

    DokuWiki is very nice if you don't want to use a database -- everything is written to files. Can authenticate off LDAP, a database and more. Worth a look.

    MediaWiki which is used in Wikipedia is probably the most advanced and well featured.

    On the opposite side of the coin, if you want something small, extra simplistic and quick, you could try TiddlyWiki

    If you want a wiki, and know exactly what you want it for, in terms of features/uses, then...
    http://www.wikimatrix.org/ and select the 'Choice Wizard'

    This site filters out different wikis depending on what you had in mind.

    would second this one (though I've not looked at any others in a long time)
