I like having pre-loaded examples. Include the same things as on the 
quick reference on the default edit page.

Another idea, for the quick reference on the default edit page: Add a 
"search documentation" box. I put one on the sidebar, that shows only if 
you have edit permission, but if it would also go well on the edit page.
