Thanks Guillaume, I will give the FAQ tutorial a try today and see how that
goes. Thanks again for your help. XWiki is looking better all the time!

Hi,
to do this you should probably first spend some time on this tutorial:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial to find out more
about creating XWiki classes.
Then you will need to tweak the class page to add the objects you need
(such as "meeting leader", "date", "content",
"summary" -> the categories
defined on your meeting minutes form).
The next step will be to modify the ClassSheet to display your elements
the way you want them to be seen by users (using CSS). Say, a table to
display participants names, the meeting title in bold and so on...
The last step will be to add an input button on a page in order to let
people create new pages of that class easily.
All this may sound a bit complex and you'll probably need to dig a bit
into
XWiki.org... Though having done it myself I can assure you it will be
worth it :-)

Hi Guillaume,
Sorry I was not more detailed. I am referring to the predefined
template - like a blog article. We will likely have areas of our blog for
things such as meeting minutes, and we would like to use our standard format
to post these. How do I go about creating those?

Hi Sheila,
When you are talkign about pages look and feel, what exactly do you
mean? If you are talking about the general view of the wiki, you will have
to look into the Skin configuration. If you are talking about creating new
pages that are supposed to follow a predefined template (such as a blog
article template that would typically include the article's title,
publication date, author name and so on) then you can definitely do it and
create as many page templates as you want to using XWiki.
So the short answer is that creating pages with a standard look can
be done easily. I would be glad to answer you in greater length but i would
be easier if I had a better descrpition of what you have in mind.
