Don’t think “Pages“! That’s what makes your life difficult 🙂
Think Catgeory Templates…

will that let me easily edit the pages content using worpress’s WYSIWYG editor.
For example this is what i want.
A page on my site called resources. The top of the page is static content ie: I’ll make the a nice looking page(using wordpress) listing books, and documentaries. Then on the bottom on the page i was the most recent posts I’ve tagged as resources.
You’re essentially wanting this:

Also, look for Coffee2Code’s Customizable Post Listings Plugin.
Read the whole link that moshu gave you. It’s worthwhile to understand how the category template works.
I read the article he posted, i now i understand how to describe what i want.
I want to create a page template that displays the post loop beneath the content of the page. Similar to the “Archives with Content” part located at http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages.
The category template wont work, because i want a fully editable page about the post loop.
Ok, i did some more reading and i think i know what i need to do. I need multiple loops for my page template. I already figured out the loop i need to display the page, and the loop to display only one category, i just can’t figure out how to get them to both display.
i figured it out.
Here a link to the code

just replace (the page_id=44) with the id of the page you created, and replace (‘cat=3’) with the id of the category you want to display below the content of the page.
