 ====== PmWiki ======
+I run one PmWiki, just because someone else set it up. So I haven't dug too much into it, but the more I do, the more I like it. It's pretty scrappy, but very customisable. I guess similar reasons to why I like [[textpattern]], but maybe even more-so.
+I dunno, here're a bunch of links:
+  * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Category/WikipediaSuite\\ I've been looking at PmWiki again as an alternative to [[mediawiki]], mostly because MW is kinda a mess in ways I don't like, and the search is garbo.
+  * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/CustomMarkup
+  * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/Cookbook\\ Scripts for customisation and other tips.
+    * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/CustomSyntax
+    * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/Templates
+    * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/MediaCategories\\ Display a page's categories in a box, like Mediawiki does. By default they're only shown inline where they're linked.
+  * https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Skins/Skins
+===== Quirks =====
+  * //Namespaces// are called //[[https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/WikiGroup|groups]]//.
+  * //Interwiki// links are called //[[https://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/InterMap|InterMap]]//
+===== Skins =====
+There are a bunch of skins on the wiki, but to make the choice easier you may as well skip to the 'responsive web design' category:

+Felix Pleşoianu has some tidy ones on this page:

+===== Syntax =====
+PmWiki syntax is pretty standard, but there are some nice features:
+  * Letters connected to a link get included ''%%[[chip]]s%%'' display 'chips', and links to 'chip'. In [[dokuwiki]] you have to ''%%[[chip|chips]]%%''
+  * You can also easily exclude parts with brackets: ''%%[[(hot) chips]]%%'' displays 'chips' and links to 'hot_chips'. In [[dokuwiki]] you have to ''%%[[hot_chips|chips]]%%''
 ===== Troubleshooting =====
