Importing LilyPond files into Denemo is limited - it is useful if you
have a lot of music (notes) that you want to get into Denemo so that
you can work on the score in Denemo, it is not useful for importing the
structure - number of staffs, braces, clefs etc. Ask if you want help
importing the actual music of a score - notes etc.

To create a Default template score start with a blank score (or one of
the standard templates) and add any features that will be common to all
your scores. The save it via

Command: Save Template
Saves the current score as a template, offering to remove the music if
desired. When removing the music, all movements except the first
movement are deleted and all the contents of the staffs except the
first source reference, and any Incipit is deleted too.
Location: Main Menu ▶ File ▶ Save
Internal Name: SaveAsTemplate

If you use the name "Default" for this file then the command

Command: Open Default Template
Opens the template Default.denemo in the user's custom template folder.
Location: Main Menu ▶ File ▶ Open
Internal Name: OpenMyDefaultTemplate

will create a new score using that score as a template.
