Putting {{subst:PAGENAME}} in the template would insert the name of the template instead of the city, therefore the editor is instructed to add the colon when creating the article.
<<FYI from a user>>
I created another template called substPAGENAME
containing
{{PAGENAME}}
then referenced {{Template:substPAGENAME}} instead of {{substPAGENAME}}. This replaces the correct pagename automatically on save - and stops the user having to intervene...
- The objective is to have the pagename in the wikitext. I suppose your method does not achieve that, though it renders it. But that can be done with {{PAGENAME}} also.--Patrick 23:19, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
