User blog comment:Toughpigs/Standard new page layout -- looking for feedback/@comment-429401-20100417002739

Have to say that a lot of 'no content' pages have resulted from the create new page widget.

But the earlier addition of the handy + category button had a similar effect with IP users adding information thinking it creates the page or magically inserts it into the page.

The only way of learning is to have ago, but having examples to 'copy' does help. I dont think people can find the basic templates and or look at help pages juding by some of the things people ask in the forum. So may be a few 'typical page layouts' for users to copy.

As Sxerks says the RTE may be hiding too much of the code so people have no understanding of how pages are constructed. That then makiest a bigger jump later when templates are needed, as they do not understand wiki code at all.

The one std page layout suits very few wikis as they find they need several std pages in my opinion.
