Template governance involves guiding the creation, updating, and deletion of templates based on base-template guidelines to ensure consistent template usage across documents and task artefacts within PAPI projects.

A base template provides structured frontmatter and body formatting guidelines for PAPI projects. You need it before drafting new task documents to confirm required sections and placeholders are present and aligned with project standards.

Review and update PAPI templates by reading and summarizing the template to confirm alignment with project standards, ensuring required sections, placeholders, and structured frontmatter are present before creating or updating any document.

Yes, PAPI template management enforces a structured frontmatter and body format, including guidance sections and references to a base template to ensure standardized document and task artefact creation across projects.

Without base-template guidelines, managing templates risks inconsistent frontmatter, missing required sections, and misaligned placeholders, which breaks document consistency and complicates template governance across PAPI project artefacts.
