Yes, it indeed depend on the expanding-order.
Yesterday, I tried a workaround.
I moved ":Added: %u \n :END:" from "~/.contact" to "~/.emacs",
which makes the new template in org-remember-templates as
("Contact" ?c "* %^{Name} \n%[~/.contact] :Added: %u \n :END:" "contact.org"
"Contacts")
But then I found that the content of the file "~/.contact" was not inserted at
all. *Maybe this is a bug.*
I added "\n" before ":Added:":
("Contact" ?c "* %^{Name} \n%[~/.contact]\n :Added: %u \n :END:" "contact.org"
"Contacts")
then it did the work, but the result was not perfect.
