Public cards are a great idea @chrisanderson , have to have a think how we may make use of them. I've got a separate question on cards that are used as templates for other cards. Is there any way to use a card as the base for a new card without copying the content and clicking new then pasting? It would be a nice feature to be able to open a template and then click a "Create new from card" button and it goes straight into edit mode with all the content of the template but as brand new card. Then the user could populate it, walk through the categorisation and verification steps and just make sure they are appropriate before saving it to their desired collection / board. Am I missing this? Does it exist already?

Hey @lbartell ! I'm also REALLY looking forward to when we have card templates 
Hi @nick.snelling , hi @lbartell 
, can confirm that I have been discussing this with multiple clients. You two are not alone!
Currently a workaround reached with one of our clients is to have a collection where the only authors are those that establish the templates and the only content is cards as templates and a style guide.
The templates are tagged and then the workflow is to copy the template with our copy card function, paste in to a new card. and then complete the card.
You could also have a collection where everyone is an author, called 'Drafts', where cards are made for review. For smaller teams a suggestion could be to send a knowledge alert to a group called 'Reviewers' with the intended location and tags included in the Alert.
For larger teams a slack channel may be a better idea, set up as an activity feed.

The activity feed is good to know thanks!
Hi! I'm Nora a product manager on the Guru team, we're working on templates actively!! I don't have an exact date for launch but rest assured Templates V1 is actively being engineered as we speak 
thanks so much all for your interest and persistence around this feature. I'm very excited for its launch!

I'm super excited for this feature. Our team did a big Guru audit and this would be a great tool to make that work have an ongoing effect on cleanliness and maintenance/content submission process consistency. I suspect many teams will be doing that as they scale, so I'm happy to hear that this is a feature being worked on.
Yay! So excited to hear this will be helpful @cderupe and @pwickes ! Go team templates :the_horns:
