On certain pages, wikis use preloaded templates help people start new discussion threads in a particular way. See "Examples..." below.
This task is about understanding the following open questions...
=== Open questions
- [ ] 1. How do contributors create the templates that are used to populate the new discussion form?
- [ ] 2. What changes – if any – will need to be made to the new discussion workflow we are designing to make sure it is compatible with how people are currently creating and integrating these new discussion templates?
=== Examples: preloaded new discussion templates
