This page compares various wiki software, on different parameters:

I've been using moinmoin because it uses the file-system for its
backend data, which probably makes the install simpler.

(I haven't tried the others... but most of them require a database 
server for their backend. I didn't have permissions to install and run
a database server on my machine -- that restricted my choices quite a 
bit.)

PS: I'm not a python fanatic... just beginning to get a hang of the 
language.
