Also, someone may want a snapshot of Wikipedia, but not need to run a full copy – like, they don’t need article history and such. You can get that too.
Note that I suspect you actually want the third one, in which case I suggest you avoid MediaWiki. Not because it’s bad, but because it’s almost certainly overkill for your use-case and there’s way simpler, easier-to-setup-and-maintain systems with fewer moving parts out there.
I kind of regret that, because I don’t like the proliferation of wiki syntaxes. Like, I’d rather have just one syntax that everyone could learn.
