Better Wiki app for MS Teams?
OneNote can cover most if not all of those requests. That's what most of us use in lieu of the Wiki tab which many wish could be turned off :). Flexible, can be used in apps / Teams / web etc. Best of all it's built in to Microsoft 365 / Teams and included in most licenses.

One of the most important features of a wiki (e.g. Confluence) is the ability to refactor, to move/rename pages, while maintaining the links between them. Otherwise, you just have a virtual file system that holds documents.
It's also helpful to use an arbitrary sub-folder GUI idiom, rather than a rigid/finite structure where tiers are named (as it is in OneNote, where that structure does make some sense for note-taking).
But, I am at the first place I've seen in a couple decades that doesn't have a proper wiki (Confluence, MediaWiki, Twiki, etc) so we do use OneNote. However, the level of integration (via such tooling) is markedly reduced as compared to what I am used to seeing where folks can invest in content that will be part of a "web" of information.
