I don't know if I'm a good data point but my company, a telecom, adopted a wiki
(JBoss I think) as essentially our knowledge base and it was a miserable
failure. You could attach files but existing content could not be easily
"ported" into the interface, and there were all kinds of things we needed it to
do that it couldn't do. They abandoned it a while back in favor of Sharepoint.
So, I can't really answer your questions point by point but I can say we had a
bad experience trying to put what we had into a wiki.
On the upside, I did write the user guide for it, and that was really cool.
That probably doesn't help you though. :)

Subject: Wikis vs FM
Dear all,
I'm reading here and there that a number of companies consider moving their
documentation to a Wiki. One of my clients did so a couple of months ago.
What are the limitations of a Wiki such as Confluence compared to FM? Can a
Wiki be the single source of data, and does it allow exporting to formats such
as those offered by MiF2Go for instance?
Thank you all for your expertise,
Mathieu.
