    Concrete5 will give you inline editing and content approval out of the box, the templating system is super simple, the core blocks should get you started for most of the stuff, the add-ons marketplace has a lot of extras to suit basically every need, probably a lot less than Wordpress though, but I never found something that I couldn't do in C5, and if you can't find something, it's not that difficult to build your own custom blocks if you know your way with PHP. Plus it's very easy to hack every block, in fact, the whole system is built in a way that lets you modify and create custom templates out of anything. I'm a noob at PHP and I modify things all the time, super easy even for non-developpers.
    That said, there's been a while since I touched WP, I'm going to have to in a future project so I guess I'll see what the state of things are. C5 is also very different now than it was a couple years ago, people who didn't used it recently should give it a go. I really love to work with it.

    • Actually, templating is caveman-simple. By far the easiest CMS I've used, as a designer.Continuity
