Dear all,
Can anyone tell me a way to ensure that a template is included in all pages
of a particular namespace? I'd like to use our mediawiki to allow people to
annotate some things in a biology project and want to use a template to
guide what information should be given, and the wiki URLs will be generated
automatically by an external program. I could generate the pages in advance
from a perl script or similar but I thought there might be a better way,
especially since I won't always know in advance what the page names should
be.
Thanks,
Matthew
You could use an AbuseFilter to block saving pages without that template.
