Reasons for picking Moin are typically: Reasons for picking MediaWiki are typically:
Moin is sounding better to me so far. Less overhead is good. Generally, people pick a Wiki that Just Works (TM). Unfortunately, they pretty much all do, so there's no absolute "this is better". The existence of so many different Wiki systems is testament to that.
Well, yeah. Has anyone given a good reason to move from Moin? I can read the wiki and write stuff in it OK.
I did a move at work from Moin to MediaWiki, on the intranet wiki ten of us use all day every day. Our reason was that our Moin wiki was just somehow not as usable as we wanted from a wiki, so we gave MediaWiki a go and it was good enough to bother moving engines. Also, the Moin wiki was full of outdated rubbish, so this was a handy excuse to start over.
"somehow not as usable" isn't a strong argument either. Specifically what issues do you have with Moin, and are they present on wiki.winehq.org?
None. You appear to be reading something that I didn't write.
Number of new users is not necessarily proportional to number of new spammers. Do we actually have a problem with spam on the Wiki?
If there is, I'll hereby put my hand up to help.
You were implying that there IS a problem with spammers. I see a request elsewhere on wine-devel to have an IP blocked, so that's one spammer out of how many new users?
Er, I didn't state that wiki.winehq.org has a problem with spammers - I asked if there was, *in the text you actually quoted*. Again, you appear to be reading things I didn't write at all, even while quoting what I did. Your communications are confusing, please make them less so.
