Upload a module template to Commons for multiple downloads

I don't know what the Template option is for when uploading to Commons.  It doesn't do what I though it would.

I have a number of pages that I reuse in multiple modules.  They have special HTML formatting and text content.  It's time-consuming to have to re-enter all that information for each new module I create.

I thought the Template option would let me upload one module, and then download it multiple times for many modules.  However, it's replacing any module that I created using that template.  For example, I downloaded the template module, and renamed it "14 - Monday, Nov. 1".  I then downloaded the module again to create "15 - Tuesday, Nov. 2".  Instead of creating a new module, it over-wrote the one labeled "14 - Monday, Nov. 2".
