I apologize if this has been answered before, I can't seem to find an answer easily. When users click on 'create content' they are presented with whatever taxonomies apply to the node type they are creating. I want those taxonomies to default to something like 'Please select a term', I also want the user to be presented with an error if they try to submit the form without selecting a term.

As it is now, if the user forgets to select a term, he or she will automatically select the first term in the list by default. I don't like that, what can I do about it?

I don't know how to make them choose one, but you can change what the "default" term is with this module:
http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_defaults

You could also add a block to the "add/node" page at the bottom below the submit button reminding them to select one.
