Creating a Custom Wiki Template
A SharePoint Specialist from RJB Technical Consulting will show how to develop and utilize a custom Wiki template within SharePoint. A custom template is not available out-of-the-box with SharePoint, but with a little bit of code it is indeed possible. There are various ways to customize not only the entry screen, but the final Wiki page itself.
Highly recommended for anyone thinking of implementing a Wiki solution.
