The purpose of the login is so you can see *who* made the edits.  I would
think even for an intranet-only wiki that would still be a valuable
feature!  Otherwise, there would be zero accountability if anyone did a
disastrous change.

In our organization, I'm using Windows domain authentication. So, you're
forced to login regardless (you don't have to remember to log in, for
example).  Another advantage of this is that it can be accessed from
anywhere, not just internally.  Our moin wiki has become a real success
story-- replacing our old traditional html pages (which were consequently
rarely updated) and a bunch of other servers as our primary internal home
page. We use it for everything from project tracking, instructions,
documentation, processes, to even smaller but important things like our
phone list (thanks to the nifty <<SortBy()>> macro which even alphabetizes
the list for us.
