I previously suggested Gollum and think I should suggest it again. |

Gollum provides features relevant to a Wiki setting including web |
| 30 |
editing. It would not require pages be rewritten and can render |
| 31 |
MediaWiki that is maintained in a Git repository. It should be all of |
| 32 |
the positives with no negatives. |

Please refer to a statement by a project contributor and the original |
| 35 |
author: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/issues/712. |
