However, there are less-thorough methods that will achieve something close to what you want. For those, I refer you to Help:New page and Help:Preloaded templates. No, not quite what I'm looking for--sorry! I'm currently setting up abuse filters that prevent users from removing the template unless they're in certain user groups. For that to work, the template needs to already be there (be added after the article's created), so that the author doesn't remove the template before the article is created.

Thanks anyways! :)
