Wikimedia Bugzilla is closed!

A well known problem of wikipedia is that newly created pages often do not
respect editing conventions.

e.g. actually on Italian wikipedia there are about 2500 articles (in 135,000)
that need to be formatted accordingly.

IMHO the actual situation could improve if the user would be prompted to start
newly created pages from a stub. 

e.g. the stub could contain a {{stub}} template, the "Internal links" and
"External links" paragraphs, an image example, and so on.

If the referenced stub can be specified via the page's URL it would be really
easy to build a simple wizard that could even insert category-specific templates
and paragraphs.

e.g. a standardized first line for biographies:
Name Surname (Birth City, [[day]] [[year]] - Death Town [[day]] [[year]]).

The wikimedia software should first ask the user for the page name (in order to
check that it doesn't already exists) then create the page, (move the user to a
choice of stubs/wizard), fill the newly created page with the stub and move the
user to the page in edit mode.

many thanks and good work, Lorenzo.
