= Prepopulate the description of a new ticket

== Description

This plugin fills the description of a new ticket with a pre-defined template.

Unlike TracTicketTemplatePlugin, this plugin does not use dedicated tables for templates but instead uses wiki pages. For example, the content of `TicketStencilDefect` page is used as a template for "defect" ticket. See #13327 for when the ticket type contains spaces.

Not using dedicated tables means that you do not need to upgrade your project.
