"If a template type is already set, then the dialog should not display during the edit session. The dialog should only remind you upon creating a brand-new template or saving a template classified as 'unknown'."

That's fine for wikis that have few templates or that are just starting out. But in active wikias that's a hassle. When one clicks publish, one expects something to be published, not to be prevented from doing so until the template is classified. You might as well add a two step process e.g. a new classify button and then publish to submit.

While I'm all for the new template classification, I think that the current implementation is somewhat lacking and sets the wrong expectations.
