Enterprise wikis are meant to be used in a corporate (or organizational) context with a focus on enhancing internal knowledge sharing and a greater emphasis on features like access control, integration with other software, and document management.

For other third-party uses of MediaWiki, please see Sysadmin hub.

[edit] Editing

Extension:ParserFunctions

Extension:WikiEditor
WYSIWYG editor sponsored by WikiMedia.
Vector
A Polished skin for MediaWiki that comes bundled by default. Enable Extension:Vector for advanced functionality for this skin.
Extension:Cite
Display citations to show where information originated. This is particularly useful when merging data from a single document on multiple wiki pages to indicate why the information is authoritative.

[edit] Navigation & Search

Extension:BreadCrumbs2
Navigation aid when traversing the wiki, usually used to display and highlight a category hierarchy.
Extension:CategoryTree
Improve category listings with counters for contained pages of sub-categories.
Extension:SphinxSearch
An alternative to the default search engine, lightweight but allowing more robust indexing of content through the third-party Sphinx engine.
Alternatives:
Extension:Lucene-search -- more complicated but more robust still, used by large wikis like Wikipedia
Extension:Semantic MediaWiki
Allows you to add meta data to content in wiki articles and providing a query language for dynamically retrieving content including properties and lists of articles.
Alternatives:
Extension:DynamicPageList
