There is no default magic word for this in MW (AFAIK).

This extension creates a new magic word {{USERNAME}}: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_homepages

It might be worth a try.

Best wishes, Morten :-)

I want to put a default category for new pages as the "logged-in user drafts" [[Category: Username Drafts]] so as to keep 'work in progress' seperate from articles that are complete. Is there a keyword or a simple tweak to get current username? thanks
