+
+No, it would only help if the new blog post were being made via the form.
+If you're editing it in vi, and committing, it doesn't help. :-) This is
+another reason why I prefer the approach in [[discussion_page_as_blog]].
+Although I don't mind getting this implemented too, for other reasons.
+
+I see three possible designs:
+
+1. Simply use the bestlink(new_page_content) as the default content. Thomas
+ Schwinge emailed me an implementation of this. It has the problem that
+ it doesn't make sense to use the same new page template for a Discussion
+ page as for the page being discussed. (That's a specific case of a more
+ general problem.)
+
+1. Modify inline so that "template=foo" uses page foo as the template for
+ new posts made to the blog. This doesn't cater to every case, but
+ perhaps it would be enough?
+
+1. Make pages able to embed in them a pagespec that says they are the
+ template when new pages are created that match that pagespec.
+ This is the most general solution, but depends on
+ [[plugin_data_storage]].
+

+
+This feature would also allow the automatic inclusion of a given template in
+every new post, which could help for [[/plugins]] (automatically use the
+plugin template), or for [[/bugs]] and [[todo_items|/todo]] (automatically use
+a template that appends "(done)" to the title if the page links to
+"done"). --[[JoshTriplett]]

+> This is a feature I miss a lot from MoinMoin, and is especially helpful when you maintain pages which have a regular format (eg. recipe pages). I understand that using svn would bypass this feature but I think it's worth considering anyway because:
+
+> * For any given site often it's only the admin user who makes changes via svn, everyone else uses the web
+> * It's remote and casual users who benefit most from having standard templates to use for new pages
+> * When using svn to make changes it's easier to manually provide template functionality (eg. cp recipe_template.mdwn newpage.mdwn)
+
+> All of course bearing in mind that I'm just commenting because I don't have the skills to actually make the required changes. ;-) -- [[AdamShand]]

+# Use Case *Copyright Notes*
+
+Leaving aside the [[plugins/inline]] stuff I have a completely different
+use case for this (which is also why I wrote the plugin Joey mentioned).
+
+For a GNU-affiliated wiki we want to track copyright stuff right from
+the beginning, as the wiki pages may eventually evolve into official
+GNU documentation.
+
+That's why I want to have such copyright notices
+be included in every freshly created page by default (and having them
+interpreted by another plugin I also emailed to Joey).
+
+Of course this
+will also only work when using web-editing, but the people using
+rcs-editing (coining new terms, eh ;-)?) usually know what they're doing.
