I make my website by creating Kurt-Page-Content (kpc) xml files and merging them with a template file using xslt. This way I do not have to rewrite all the crust and menu when I make a new page, plus it creates a nice consistency for all the pages. The kpc files contain the content for the page, written in xhtml, which is fine for me since I know html. Sure, typing out "a" tags is not much fun, as compared to a wiki, but my linking is usually minimal. The html files are built using "make", which runs xsltproc.
Here are the files, plus an example kpc file (note that this page was produced using make.kpc):
