	**** I do appreciate your suggestions, but no, that's not what I'm looking for. I want to preload a template of directions evertime a page with the word "Portal" in its name is edited. Maybe it's not possible.

	***** Heh, it's an interesting challenge. :) If you are still interested in pursuing it, I was thinking you might be able to put the help code in MediaWiki:Sitenotice; but currently, there's no function allowing you detect that 'action=edit' is part of a url. You could write a function that references $path or calls 'getFullURL();', but I'm not positive that the 'action=edit' will show up. And I assume editing the toolbar to print text above it isn't what you want, so I checked into the 'editintro' you mentioned. It says [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Page_action#Actions here] that the editintro variable is an option that can be set to the 'title of an existing article or template to rendered above the edit form'. Maybe set it to a new template, MediaWiki:Allarticletext, and see if that works.--[[User:MiamiVolts\|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts\|talk]]) 23:08, 22 September 2007 (EDT)		***** Heh, it's an interesting challenge. :) If you are still interested in pursuing it, I was thinking you might be able to put the help code in MediaWiki:Sitenotice; but currently, there's no function allowing you detect that 'action=edit' is part of a url.
