Are you looking for non-you contributors, or just you? And if collaborating with others, how geeky?
For the "small number of geeky contributors" crowd, I prefer sharing a VCS repo (whether Git, Subversion, Fossil, Bazaar, CVS, or whatever) where contributions come in the form of changesets (you choose how to accept, whether email or some fancy web GUI, or Usenet or whatver), and then using a static site generator (again, options abound) to build/deploy the static files to the web. But that's just me.
For dynamic contributions running live against a database, Fossil's built-in wiki functionality¹ is hard to beat. Runs as CGI (a single static binary easy to deploy in a chroot with httpd+slowcgi on OpenBSD or your favorite cgi-bin/ provider), offers version-control and issue-tracking too, and uses scant CPU/RAM resources. Underlying storage is a single sqlite database file, making backups easy too.

@mwl With my smartass hat on I suppose that might be MediaWiki hosted on FreeBSD just because of absolute popularity numbers. But I suppsoe ikiwiki and dokuwiki might at least have some installations. (Shame on me as I only host wikis on linux, dokuwiki fan for >10 years.)

We're using a vimwiki shared via syncthing here.
Even the non-vimmers here use it without implosions.
