content for new pages created using the web frontend. To register a
template, insert a [[PreprocessorDirective]] on some other page.

Note: It's generally not a good idea to put the `edittemplate` directive in
the template page itself, since the directive would then be included as
part of the template on new pages, which would then in turn be registered
as templates. If multiple pages are registered as templates for a new page,
an arbitrary one is chosen, so that could get confusing.
