I have seen a lot of templates/form in different industries.
I know it is a form and might be always changeable from one industry to another industry.
The main items might includes in this temp (form):-
ID No.
Name of stakeholder
Title
Contact information
High requirments
Major expectiations
Influence
Roles
Responsibilities
Classifications
and
e.t.c

This process is 13.1 ( Identifying the stakeholder don early in the project (at initial phase) either after creating project charter (4.1) or simultaneously with it.
This process (13.1 ) is continuously iterated and updated at every beginning of project phases or let say through the project. (It does not happened ONCE).

Even some project managers using above temp/form which is the output of next process (like plan stakeholder Engagement 13.2 ).

an example of that is a Classification (Unaware,Resistance,Natural,Supportive and Leading).and this is actually stakeholder engagement assessment matrix.

and some PMs go further with adding to the list more and more items, this because they either could not differentiate between stakeholder Registry and stakeholder engagement matrix or they want to mix the two things in one tem/form.

may be they knew that this process is contentiously updated and they can use any output of next process.

I am sure this is comes only from experiences rather than theory.

PMI left this issue as a methodology for PM and not standard, thus why I mentioned before a practices and usually differ from one temp/form to another one.

Yes it's very flexible Mansour. Aside from project requirements, there are also organizational policies including but not limited to the PMO that may effect how these templates are populated.

Yes, agreed. Templates merely provide a foundation from which to start. The expectation would be to apply and adjust as needed to suit any particular needs.

As long as you can customise it to your needs and you can cover main purpose of it.

Should a template be a starting point?

Here comes an article I was the pleasure to write time ago and was published by the PMI and the IIBA as "best practices". Perhaps it helps you. Just to comment forget about to put too much information. Do not forget the objective of stakeholder management. Is like I guess @Vincent tried to say: template does not matter if you do not take into account what really matters on project stakeholder management.https://www.projectmanagement.com/blog-pos...th-stakeholders
