Converting TemplateWizard into a beta feature is the best option on the table for rolling it out. We can then push it to all wikis without attempting to get consensus.
In addition to that, it will give the feature discoverability. Otherwise it could be lost amid the myriad other toolbar icons.
For the time being, we should roll it out without a icon popup (like we did for CodeMirror). The puzzle piece icon is already associated with templates since VE uses the same. We should incorporate the puzzle piece icon in the beta feature SVG, if we can.
We'll hear from community if they are having problems discovering the right icon.
Description: TemplateWizard allows you to add templates to wiki pages quickly and easily from WikiEditor. It makes use of TemplateData to show template and parameter descriptions for templates. It also allows for searching for wiki pages and commons images for template input from the editor itself.
