Wikimedia uses confluence too (https://confluence.toolserver.org/pages/listpages-dirview.action?key=main). I found that funny when that was posted in another thread :).
It's deprecated and will be taken down soon. the information from confluence has been migrated to the main toolserver wiki.
As a case in point, the reason for using it was indeed access restrictions - and the fact that we got a license for free. I turned out to be combersome to have info spread across two wikis (with different syntax), and people didn't like to use it, because, well, we are all used to mediawiki.
We found that namespace-based access restrictions (implemented using the Lockdown extension) are sufficient for our needs.
