XWiki supports the notion of structured documents (see http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/Forms, http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/DataModel and http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial). So maybe creating an XClass to represent your sm-event object would be the best. This will allow you to get structured data, display them in livetables, query them, process them, etc. If by "templates" you mean http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Administration+Application#HTemplatesCreationandAdministration then this is not about structured data, it's just some predefined content that you copy when creating new pages. So first, you need to choose whether you wish to use XClass/XObjects or Page Templates. Then to convert your existing content you'll need to use scripting (http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Scripting) to read existing data, parse it and store it in new data structures or new pages, then remove the old pages.
