Hi Alex!

thanks for your interest in JSPWiki! :-) As for your questions:

Are there any administrative capabilities? like pages to see how much
stuff exists in the wiki?
for the latter, that can be accomplished via plugin [#1]. IIRC, The
default set of wiki pages contains pages for page index, recent and
changes / full history and a system info page with a some more wiki
information. You can see all of them at jspwiki-wiki.apache.org, on
the left menu, inside the special pages box. Don't know if you're
looking for something else though

Ability to preload content? backup/restore?
Pages/Attachment by default are stored on files inside a directory.
The initial page load consists on unzipping a file inside a folder, so
nothing stops you from putting there more pages. For new pages to be
picked up you should restart your jspwiki instance, so they get picked
up by the indexer. There aren't any in-built capabilities to
import/export pages or backup/restore, you have to take care of that
outside JSPWiki. Also, I've said pages are stored on disk (the page
and attachment providers), but you can provide your own
page/attachment provider implementation

User management and permissions setup?
Please see [#2] all related to Identity management, groups, ACLs
(application-wide or per page), authentication, etc.

I'd also add the things that I like most from JSPWiki:
* very, very easy to use and setup
* almost every moving part of JSPWiki is customisable and can be
replaced with another implementation, 3rd party or not (2 page
providers, 3 search indexers, two wiki syntaxis, plugins, filters)
* deployment options (war, portable binaries, docker images)
* comprehensive security options


HTH,
juan pablo
