One can currently create a new section with such URL : http://my.wiki.com/w/index.php?title=Article&action=edit§ion=new It would be useful to pass a template to this URL, as a default value for the text, same for the title : http://my.wiki.com/w/index.php?title=Article&action=edit§ion=new&template=TemplateName&title=MyTitle (no subst) http://my.wiki.com/w/index.php?title=Article&action=edit§ion=new&templateSubst=TemplateName&title=MyTitle (subst) This would be nice to force the use of predefined templates, for example for votes and such "administration" pages. Such feature would remove the extra hassle for the end-user who has to copy the template, and include it in the textbox. I don't know if this should be restricted to templates, maybe the inclusion would be useful for all namespaces.
This can be done by: http://my.wiki.com/w/index.php?title=Article&action=edit§ion=new&preload=Template:Xy Thus I close this bug! But if this should not cover all of your needs, just reopen this bug. But I think &preload= will be enough!
This is a feature of the extension inputbox. See [[meta:Inputbox#type_comment]] and [[meta:ser:Gangleri/tests/bugzilla/inputbox]] best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
