Good idea.
Agreed, and I've already done half the work offline.
What do we want to name this page, which namespace does it go in (main, Help, somewhere else), and what categories does it get ("Administrivia", "Useful Notes", both, neither, something else)?
I would say, "How to Create A New Page - The Old Skool Method" and stick it in both name spaces. If we think of something better we can change it anyhow - doing it right the first time is good, but I think it's more important this page goes up sooner than later.
Also important is that it should link to all the useful templates so people aren't stuck with having to code the blasted thing all the way from the ground-up. It may also be useful to have a complete page templates if we don't have them already - you know, like character page, place/landmark page, item/macguffin page, works page, trope page, etc.

Okay, here's the first draft, just in time to not be in the wiki backup:

Have at it. This needs some work - at the least, it needs a category - but I don't want to appear to be a dictator by "forcing" my view on everyone.
Looks good to me. Just need a little more info for most of the other subpages.
