what's the coolest way to have a page formatted landing page?

Is there a cooler way to make page? or maybe a way to embed a wiki-based page?

If you want this sort of a structure, just host a wiki on your address root, then host the forum in a subfolder. create whatever links you like on the wiki to the forum.
If you want a page creation tool there is an app out called vanilla CMS, it will likely do what you need.
