I think we would need to know more about your use case. For instance, what 
will all these articles have in common that might benefit from a template? 
How do you imagine using the sub-sections?

Personally, I don't like solutions that clutter tag-space with single-use 
tags. To me tags seem better to apply semantic meaning to entire categories 
of tiddlers. But maybe that's just me. I would use links to organize 
sub-sections.
 
The next version of TW5, 5.1.12 is coming out pretty soon . It will have a 
tool that will let you quickly cut (excise) your article into relevant 
sub-tiddlers. This might be the ticket for what you want to accomplish.

Good luck,
Mark
