Suppose you want your form-created pages to go in the group
called Example. Create a page called Example.FormTemplate
that contains the layout of your form.

This can go in any page in the Example group. For example,
suppose you put a link to the page [[new entries]] on
Example.HomePage. On the page called Example.NewEntries,
place the following markup:

(:wikiform:)

This will make Example.NewEntries an entry form page.

To see a list of entries, place the following markup on,
for example, Example.HomePage

(:wikilist:)

It may help you to look at a working system:
http://www.wikipublisher.org/wiki/index.php?n=TipOfTheWeek.TipOfTheWeek

This uses one of the advanced features, a ViewTemplate
page, to control how individual pages are laid out. In
this example, the list of entries is on 
TipOfTheWeek.TipOfTheWeek, the form is on 
TipOfTheWeek.NewTip, the form template is on
TipOfTheWeek.FormTemplate and the view template is on
TipOfTheWeek.ViewTemplate.

Hope this helps
