 * Yes, any template can be preloaded.


 * Yes,but what should I add to MediaWiki:Editor-template-list cause * Template:Newpage_actor doesnt work and neither does * Template:Newpage_actor

 * You mean like it it done at this page?


 * That is fairly simple. Create a template, use the right link to it, create a create edit box and voila, people can easily create a pre made page and yust fill in the details.


 * Because of the limitations the 'add a page' template (3 options max) has which is used standard, it is best to refer people to a single new page creation page, so that they can choose to whatever page they feel like making.


 * Do notice that a lot of new users won't comprehend why you are doing this at first, so make sure the blank page option is the most prominent present and use the message about new page creation as well ( MediaWiki:Newarticletext ).
