I'm thinking it should be a combination of syntax in the page, but also in
the "New Page create" page. That page now directs you to the new "Drafts"
userspace, but I think it should direct you also to Wikidata. That page
says this now on enwiki:

Before creating an article, please read Wikipedia:Your first article.
You can also search for an existing article to which you can redirect this
title.
To experiment, please use the sandbox. To use a wizard to create an
article, see the Article wizard.
When creating an article, provide references to reliable published sources.
An article without references, especially a biography of a living person,
may be deleted.
You can also start your new article at Special:Mypage/XXXXXX. There, you
can develop the article with less risk of deletion, ask other editors to
help work on it, and move it into "article space" when it is ready.
