I previously suggested Gollum and think I should suggest it again. Gollum provides features relevant to a Wiki setting including web editing. It would not require pages be rewritten and can render MediaWiki that is maintained in a Git repository. It should be all of the positives with no negatives. Please refer to a statement by a project contributor and the original author: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/issues/712. Respectfully, R0b0t1
