Another similar extension
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PagesOnDemand
The templated page isn't created until someone clicks on a link to the page. PagesOnDemand looks at the page title for clues about what to use and can use different templates based on the patterns found in the page titles. PagesOnDemand has hooks for creating new pattern/ template responses. Jim Wilson and I wrote this (mostly Jim W).

Boilerplate uses 1 *template* to stuff text into every new page

Is there a way to put default text on every page so that every time someone creates an article, the default text will already be in the article?
any help appreciated
