Their are way to many to choose from.

Where is the default wiki template located in?

Maybe that would be a good place to start looking.

The default wiki template? These are inner-templates.

There's no "default wiki template". Think of these as being like a function or something similar. You can put all of these common snippets there to make it easier to manage. These templates work the same way. You can call them with {{template}} and they will appear on your page. You can also use parameters {{template|parameter|parameter}

We could modify this for example (near curve):

Yeah, the skin isn't a priority at this point. I have some ideas of a skin but I don't have the time to even explain it. When we get the documentation rolling we can start worrying about a skin. Unless you want to work on it. Although, I'm not going to guarantee we will be using it.

It's documentation. Do you put all of the pretty pictures in and design the cover before the book is written? Even for a website, content comes first IMO.

we are on internet, not on a book...if the containing isn't ready, why put the content.

But it's your choice, i won't be against. ;)

I happen to agree with giving content priority over presentation. People will deal with presentation they don't like if the content is there. Not saying we shouldn't work on the presentation, though. :)

Honestly, I like finding a theme first, or at least try to see if there are themes I can work with and like. Then I will go in with content. Then I would put the rest of my efforts to the theme.

Just my 2 cents:
We could have a sub-board here, child of Doc Helpers, which redirects to the wiki. Much easier to find and access for everyone involved in Documentation. IMHO.
To-do lists are for deferral. The more things you write down the later they're done… until you have 100s of lists of things you don't do.
