I have been asked to provide templates for new pages. When someone creates a new page, rather than having a blank empty page, they want some pre-written information (such as ACLs, various headers and so forth) already in place.

There are two stages to this request:
1. Provide a default pre-populated new page and
2. Provide multiple different pre-populated pages, perhaps based on some naming in the original link.

As an example I am thinking along the lines of something like:

[my new page | myNewPage template='thisTemplateName']

Clicking on this when "myNewPage" doesn't exist would produce a new page based on "thisTemplateName". "thisTemplateName" would already be a wiki page so that "myNewPage" would effectively be a clone of "thisTemplateName". If "myNewPage" already exists then the template would just be ignored.

Even if 2 isn't currently viable, has anyone got any suggestions for a default pre-populated page template? Have I missed something obvious?

TIA
