 * For no. 1 can you please clarify what you mean by make a template the default on a certain namespace ! e.g give more of an example of the application for it.
 * For no. 2 just create a copy of the template Wikipedia as a new template with a name to suit instead of calling it Wikipedia and change the mesage text to the new wikis name or add a named variable into it and then you can create a template to use something like  which is plasce on the borrom of the page. Were the template is named 'creditsourcewiki' and wikiname is the name of the source wiki and pagename is the name of the page that was copied and in the original wikipedia version it defaults to the name of the page the template is on.
 * For no. 3 - pass I havent a clue about programming in php.

 * Suggestion for that: I've created links on MediaWiki:NewArticleText that will preload templates on a click, if you make it visible enough, users should be able to click them.

 * There's no easy way to make the template preload by default.
 * For your other question, which messages would you like to change? (Links, if possible). -- Random Time  23:34, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
