Actually, there's a module called Liquid if you want to have wikis with Drupal: http://drupal.org/project/liquid . I haven't tried this particular module, but I've now been using Drupal for two months on the website I maintain (http://www.arlima.net) and it's exceeded all expectations. It seems that there's very little that you can't do with Drupal.
Best,
Laurent

So far, textpattern looks like the closest to what I've wanted, though indeed drupal looks more developed and better supported. Textpattern uses textile, a wiki-style editor, that allows you to flip back and forth between wiki-style markup, xhtml, and a preview. It also is a complete content management system, though it is still fairly focussed on blogging rather than the relatively static pages I would be using it to replace.
If only it was a mediawiki-based editor: I know the wikipedia's markup quite well; textile's is another dialect.
In my case very easy onscreen editing is what I need more than anything with some CMS features--i.e. finding pages. I was finding it murder making small changes in things like syllabi: a table in code is a mess, and using a wordprocessor messes up one's hopefully clean html. The wiki-based editor seems to get around that. Tables and lists are very easy to over see and edit, and the translation back into html is very clean.
I hope to have something up in the next week or two to show.

Not so much for editing personal websites, but a useful tool for (collaboratively) editing teaching materials which could then be ported to a website or printed as a complete book, etc.:
