When making a new List, one has to create all required fields from the beginning. Why don't just let one use fields that already exist in other Lists?
I understand that there could be some security issues, especially with editing fields, but it would be still much more convenient to have a set of pre-determined fields like "Last name", "Phone" or "Email".
Thanks for your question. Once you create list you can create list template as well. Just go into List - Actions and create new template. Then you can able to use it with new list creation.
