At present there's not a "negate a link= option", although I'm
hoping to add one.

One thing that we do on pmwiki.org is to have every skin page
place the following markup near the top:

    (:include Cookbook.SkinHeader:)

    (:pagelist group=PmStuff list=normal -"Cookbook.SkinHeader":)

    !! Skin Recipes
    (:pagelist group=PmStuff list=normal link=Cookbook.SkinHeader:)
