A wiki or Wordpress.

@tim_g I've been wanting to set up a Wordpress site for myself. A person could read for days and still not know what they want or how to get started. There are so many options and themes.
There is with most CMSs.
I didn't see you specify you wanted something with no options or themes. If that's the case, go with mediawiki or something inconvenient to use like that.

@tim_g Not trying to hijack this thread but I've always wanted a site for my side work and maybe a blog. I was looking a while back. Again....so many options.

My blog users WordPress.
My wife's blog uses WordPress.
My work wiki uses WordPress.
I'm moving some calendars to WordPress, from some old 90's Perl calendars.
1/4 of all websites use WordPress.

I think I know what I will do:
https://www.dokuwiki.org/template:lcarsWordpress is definitely in the lead.
-
I'm still evaluating https://wiki.js.org/. I have it installed and setup, and I love the interface, but have not had a lot of time to really test it out in a production environment yet.
Wordpress is definitely a solid choice, especially with the right plugins.

This looks interesting. Does it pull in user-specific info from other sources or do they have to manually enter everything in?

Can use the power of wordpress and use LDAP plug-in's etc to get info wherever you see fit, we have it pulling info from AD.

I was thinking less authentication and more all of the content stuff like their calendar info, tasks and projects.

What would you all recommend for a basic intranet? I am not a coder, haven't done it in, well let's just say I can say decades. Not against learning anything. All I really need is a way to organize information, the intranet now is a basic html page with some simple php. It basically just presents information and links to various sites that we need access to. We need a little more functionality. We need some places were our users can upload files, like the HR people being able to upload new HR documents for the office etc. We then also need a page for some of our users to list contacts. I work in the public sector so this isn't like sales, we just need to list contacts at hospitals/agencies/ etc that we steer people to. I would like for that to be searchable. I am looking at Joomla, Wordpress, Drupal, possible Sharepoint. Any suggestions would be helpful. I really need something that once setup will pretty much be hands off for me.
If you are going to use Wordpress @Tim_G listed plugins and themes that he is using on his wordpress wiki.

I'll recommend Drupal. It's the most flexible and you can build anything. It's great for very simple sites or really complex ones.

The farthest that I ever got with Drupal was installing it.

Pantheon makes playing around much easier. Anything I build I start on Pantheon and then move it to wherever.

I've been playing with https://wiki.js.org/ as well and I'm really loving it. It's still fairly young it seems but looks promising. Been spending a lot of time migrating notepad and word file documentation to it over the last week or two.
I also use Wordpress for a personal website, and would recommend it if you're needing additional functionality that a wiki may not offer.
