I think this is the best approach to let anyone who never used a plone
CMS and reStructured Text to see how it works and why is different
from a wiki.

Well, at the official plone site there are really good guides for
novices[1] on this CMS and the restructured primer[2] and the quick
restructured text document[3] are my cheatsheets when I forget how to
write something.

If you're on a linux box, installing the python-docutils is the best
way to start playing with rst.

Cheers
