You may want to encourage your lab members to regularly use the wiki for an electronic lab journal. If you do, you might want to consider a protocol for using these that has been effective in the Miller Lab.
Every student should have an organized archive page with links to monthly journal entries. On each of the monthly pages entries are made reverse chronologically with the newest entries at the top. Dates are level 2 headings. Subject matter may form higher level headings if desireable. ( which it is as these will show up in the pages table of contents.)
Although data and other files may be uploaded and indexed, you may want to insist that the journal entries are self standing and don't rehire the reader to download a file and open an external Application. Graphs, probably made n EXCEL are a prime example.
