List
Here is a list of known Python-based WikiEngines.
MoinMoin -- A PythonLanguage SourceForge project, based on PikiPiki - runs as cgi, but also as FastCgi or with ModPython, lots of Plugins
PikiePikie -- Python-based, lets you put a WebLog on any page (based on PikiPiki)
[http://mdev.sourceforge.net/jesse/sliki/ Sliki] - runs with ModPython
[http://frotz.net/sakana/space/mojibake mojibake] - based on [http://frotz.net/sakana/space/home Sakana], runs with ModPython
CMFWiki -- a ZwiKi variant; old but compatible with Zope's CMF (Content Management Framework).
CyberPublishing -- a wiki-based web publishing framework written in Python; GPL
PyWiki -- Python-based, uses RCS, GPL license
PikiPiki -- Python-based, will run completely standalone
PyleWiki -- Python-based, optional CVS backend, Unix-like rwxrwxrwx permissions on pages
WikiForNow -- a ZwiKi variant; used at zope.org
WikiNehesa -- Many features, including images, headerbars, TEXT centering, image inventory/previewer, image uploader. Modular. $FREE$. GNU GPL.
WyPy -- a ShortestWikiContest contender, 23 lines
[http://wiki.webwareforpython.org/thiswiki Not-Yet-Named Wiki] - runs on Webware. Supports static publishing, WYSIWYG editing, ReStructuredText. Still in rapid initial development phase (as of Apr 2004).

Comments, Ratings, Reviews, Wishlists
See the [http://colorstudy.com/docs/shootout.html Web Framework shootout] where different Python WebProgramming frameworks are used to implement a bare bones wiki.
Elements for building a full-featured wiki engine:
Page templating system like [http://smarty.php.net/ Smarty]. Possible options include EmPy, ["Cheetah"], ModPython's PSP, or others listed in the [http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin/WebProgramming#head-9d0636d6da8e88f8f09de1454c5961b44183b04d templating section] of the WebProgramming page. Which one would you recommend?
Cache HTML versions of pages for faster loading. Ideally the page templating tool would handle caching. PSP for ModPython can handle this, as well as ["Cheetah"].
User Authentication. A user authentication system perhaps integrated with MySQL or possibly even LDAP. Allow for different user groups and permission levels. Any recommendations?
Database Integration. Can store data in mysql, postgresql, etc. or work without a database. There is now an [http://php.weblogs.com/adodb_python ADODB module for Python] that might be helpful in this respect. See also SqlObject.
Easy Install. Works completely in Python, and installs in one folder location. Doesn't necessarily require a database or ModPython. Doesn't require root privileges for install. ["Karrigell"] is a web-application server that can run standalone or with Apache and ModPython.
Small but Scalable. Doesn't require a huge server to run.
Arguments that MoinMoin is a candidate
- Moin has user/password auth, Groups and page ACLs also.
Other Comments
"Support HTML tags" is more of an anti-feature in wiki; so is table markup 
Database integration is more of an anti-feature.
The best tool would have flexibility. Be able to run standalone with an easy install, or integrated with Apache and a fast database server. In PHP, this is incredibily simple if you use ADODB or PEAR.
