GoWiPe is a strategy involving the tanking abilities of Golems, the damage/tank abilities of PEKKAs and the damage dealing abilities of wizards. It is most effective when PEKKAs are level 3 or higher with Golems and maxed out wizards, but Golems can be replaced by giants and level 2 PEKKAs work, albeit for a more rushed attack. Please note that this is a strategy meant to B-line straight for the town hall and as such its main concern is getting 2 stars. 3 stars are a pleasant byproduct on occasion. It also doesn't work as well with heavily honey-combed bases; it takes a while to break down the walls to get to the next building and this is a rush strategy.
From Richard's example build 2 golems and 1 giant (or 13 giants if you don't have golems), 8 wall breakers, 3 pekkas, 11 wizards and have a healing spell and 2 rage spells ready with as strong a PEKKA in your clan castle as your clan can produce [and note this is only an example, there are other combinations out there]. GoWiPe starts with choosing a side or corner of the base with the easiest access to the town hall. If the clan castle troops can easily be lured out without wasting too much time, go ahead and kill them first. Drop the two golems on the side you choose simi-far apart to draw fire away from your weaker troops. Put down some wizards to clear the extra buildings that will distract your PEKKAs from going towards the town hall. Use wall breakers to carve a path towards the town hall (optional using one of your rage spells inside their base to speed them up, but place PEKKAs quickly so they get the effect). Quickly place your PEKKAs down to walk into a rage spell inside their base, preferably with one PEKKA off somewhere else on the same side to clear other core buildings. Use your healing spell on your PEKKAs and any golems near them when they hit heavy fire, place it on them but also leaning towards where they will go so it covers them for as long as possible. Use the other rage spell whenever needed with the goal of destroying the town hall in mind. If you get 2 stars, you achieved your goal; 3 stars and you're lucky.
I took the liberty of recording Richard's attack that went very well, hijacked his google account he made for this clan and uploaded it to google drive =) hope you don't mind Richard.
GoWiPe example
I also recorded my own attack where I used the first rage spell early to help out the wall breakers, it worked for me but might not leave enough rage for the PEKKAs/damage dealers so be careful. GoWiPe example 2
Here is a tutorial you might find helpful too, it goes into more detail than my description above. Don't be discouraged by her saying dragons are more effective until PEKKA level 3, as you can see by Richard's example, this isn't always true. Youtube GOWIPE tutorial
