With mediawiki, you can require a user be authenticated prior to editing
(that's how I use it); you can also disable the ability for users to
self-register - someone who holds "sysop" or "bureaucrat" status would be
able to create the accounts.

I know others (Twiki is one, I think - though I have no personal
experience with setting that one up - just as a user) can do more granular
rights management, not just for writing, but also access to read certain
sections.  We use both Mediawiki and Twiki internally at work.

I'd be happy to help out in any way I can, time permitting (of course).
