Our intention with archetype is at a higher level.

Buying/Selling archetype, Chat archetype, Q&A etc.

The concept it to give a special skin and function per archetype. Wiki may fit there, but its way out of scope as this would involve large architectural changes. I much prefer to start with something, small, concrete, simple rather that starting work on archetypes which is a massive amount of work.
