i simply like the media wiki. It is probably the most popular type of script to use because everybody seems to go gaga over photos and videos these days.

Hi there,
Thank you for this great list. I was very surprised not to see XWiki (http://xwiki.org) listed. It’s a very popular enterprise wiki (more than 130K download last year). Check it out on google to see for yourself.
Please consider including it in your list!
Thanks
