The Tagged templatetweek is for the view and edit templates. See the Shadow
tiddlers ViewTemplate and EditTemplate which use a different formatting to
inside tiddlers.

This command
<<newTiddler
       label:"New Person"
       tag:"person"
>>

Tagged Template Tweek Would thus tagged "person",
apply the template in personViewTemplate when viewing a tiddler tagged
person
apply the template in personEditTemplate when editing a tiddler tagged
person

- These templates determine the layout of the viewing and editing process
not the content you are thinking about. You may not need the tagged template
tweek at all.

As you want to pre-populate the new tiddler with your above content put it
in a tiddler called personContent and use the following to create the new
tiddler.

<<newTiddler
       label:"New Person"
       tag:"person"
       text:{{store.getTiddlerText("personContent")}}
>>

personContent will contain your "Template" above.

I have not tested this again to ensure that the newtiddler command populates
the new tiddler with the content of personContent without first evaluating
it but you will see fairly quickly.
