There are plenty of other wiki sites that are open source and offer a platform more suited to "power users". The reason why I've chosen wikia and why I'm sure a lot of people chose wikia is because of it's super easy to use interface. I could have gone with something more convoluted that requires CSS, JS, HTML, etc but I chose wikia so I could connect with contributors who don't know a lot about that. They're making things better not only for new wiki users like myself, but also for casual contributors who don't want to invest hours trying to figure out what they're doing just to make or edit a page.
