But that would require knowledge in html, right?
(Personally I find writing html rather time consuming
while wiki text, e.g. like restructured text etc., very
closely matches with my normal .txt file notes)

Spam can be a problem, I agree.

Unfortunately, that's the only way to avoid spam, I think.

Fair enough, I do understand your concerns.

Fabien suggested to use
http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=Digikam
at the moment.
This page is editable for me (I just corrected a typo ;-).
However, I did not see a way to add new pages.
