w3m has massive display issues in general, eespecially with tables. elinks never seems to work on my machine. i dont know why. i also hate the
elinks entry format.
i use lynx and a very custom stripped-down ancient version of mozilla.  i
(stupidly) used mozilla, cause wikis in general dont get on well with lynx.
(however, i just did a test, and its actually significantly easier to edit
the wiki in lynx than it is in mozilla.  which is an impressive feat, given
the general track record of editing wikis in lynx.)

Elf,

Not to prolong this discussion further, but w3m is lightweight and
automatically shells out to your editor of choice for forms, and
works fine with the wiki.  I'm sure elinks works similarly.

in a brief response to other posts: im not on a machine thats capable of
running firefox, and emacs would exceed its memory and space many times
over, k? also, i tried copying things over, but that didnt work so well...
the mouse is incredibly fickle, as stated, and its way bigger than the
cut buffer could handle. its also entirely unstructured, and whitespace
matters in subtle ways (try putting an extra few spaces at the end of a
section and see what happens, for example), and given the mouse being flaky
enough as it is, i didnt want to spend oodles of time erasing accidental
pastes. :)
