About using the templates.
Can I copy these templates?
Yes — they are published to be used. Copy the structure, write your own content, and do not scrape the page itself onto your site.
Will a template get the page ranked?
Structure helps a page match a query's intent, but relevance, depth and links decide the outcome, and no template can supply those.
