you may look at the CocoonCompetenceCenter for Metadata issues. There we alkready started doing something into this direction.
Maybe this helps as contribution:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=104369287706014&w=2 http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=BeginnerPageTemplate
It would be great, if the Wiki could support the BeginnerPageTemplate or something equivalent and just add it into a freshly created Wiki-Page ?
Then the formal requirements could be fullfilled with less pain. Or the other idea is to add a module to the Wiki, that handles metadata (an idea which Bertrand/Steve brought in some time ago)

...So I agree with Diana about moving all docs to the Wiki. It seems the
best long-term solution, avoiding all the problems that a dual wiki/xdoc
system would cause.
I tend to agree but OTOH there must be some way for users to find out about the reliability of a document.
Currently, I think the xdocs are viewed are "official" whereas the wiki is more like "melting pot" - the difference is easy, even though the good quality of many wiki docs makes it more blurred in practice.
So I think, if in the future all docs are done on a wiki, some form of metadata/review system is required so that the state and validity of a particular document is clearly visible.
Agreed. Perhaps just a section at the top of each page for "Reviewed by <author> at <date>" declarations?
Another bit of important metadata is the Cocoon version (2.0.x or 2.1) that the doc applies to.
