One last-minute idea that just came to me. We have the Categorized Q&A section for Perl questions, why not something similar for Perl Monks / Everything Engine / Best Practices questions? E2 has Everything University for that purpose.
There are enough of us who've been using this site regularly that we could come up with user-oriented documentation fairly quickly. Just make sure that it's available by default where anonymous and new monks will see it (add a link to a couple of superdocs, maybe a nodelet), set it up so that higher level monks can each adopt a particular question and concatenate the best responses, and have a go at it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
