What do you think of DokuWiki as a substitute for Wordpress for small sites such as a site for a resaturates or a front end to a simple database? Is DokuWiki the right tool for the job?

Well since Wordpress is already the wrong tool for the job in the first place (unless your restaurant really needs a blog) it can't get much worse with DokuWiki. But to be honest, for non-technical folk who just need a simple way to update the menu and have a contact form one of those "homepage builders" are probably the best option.

WordPress is certainly widely used for simple sites -- it's not just for blogs at all.
In my opinion, however, DokuWiki is also an excellent choice. In many ways, it's easier to use and has less overhead for a small site.
