One thing you can do if wiki coding seems daunting is to use one of the simple, non-HTML templates (Deidre's, FreelanceWizard's, or Simple page) to start. Wiki markup is a lot less complex than HTML, and the basic controls (bold, underline, bullets, etc.) are available in the editor.
If you want to do some fancy HTML, and you're on a PC, grab a copy of Visual Studio Express; these have HTML editors with autocomplete and syntax validation. There's also Visual Studio Code, which is cross-platform, but I haven't played with it yet so I don't know how solid it is. I wouldn't recommend something like Dreamweaver, because the HTML it generates might cause MediaWiki to throw a fit.
