There is an article at Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_software

and you might also want to look at the discussion in this forum from June of
2007. The thread number is 8578.

I have recently set up an educational Wiki using WetPaint.com. It is free. 
It was incredibly easy to start and allows me good control of the content.

If you can show it is a Wiki for education, then you can ask and I got, the 
Google ads, removed.

Occasionally I have a couple of blips with the editing formating but nothing 
that impacts sufficiently to negate the positives.

We have been using MediaWiki widely throughout UW System. It is a free  
download. We are currently experimenting with editors to add to it so  
it is more of a WYSIWYG interface for our students and faculty. We  
have had success, with some adjustments, using it for Arabic as well  
as Japanese and Chinese. That was one of the main concerns for us.

If you are not looking to download one to run off your own servers, I  
personally like PBWiki which has a free version for educators.

You can find a comparison at:
