When grading student writing, I have sometimes wished I had some
rubber stamps explaining the most common corrections.  In hard-copy
writing I would not actually use a rubber stamp, but on a wiki......
After hand typing explanations of figure captions a few times, I
finally broke down and wrote a simple template: 
http://www.wikieducator.org/Template:Figures
Now I type {{Figures}} when ever I see uncaptioned figures in my
student's work.

I would not advocate such a heavy-handed approach across the whole
wiki, but I think it's a worthwhile time saver if a single writing
form is being used on the wiki by a class of students.

Cheers,

Declan
