Welcome!

Hello, Welcome, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Welcome}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot.

This template is substituted very frequently, so changes to it will be widely noticed. Please test any changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible template in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing.

Any breaking changes to this template, including moving it or nominating it for deletion, must be communicated in advance to Twinkle's users and maintainers at Misplaced Pages talk:Twinkle. The standard installation of Twinkle relies on this template. Thank you.

Usage

Add {{subst:Welcome}} ~~~~ to the user's talk page. It is suggested that you watch the talk page in case the user replies there.

Parameters:

|heading=no – Suppress the automatic heading: {{subst:Welcome|heading=no}}
|headtext=Heading text – Change the contents of the heading: {{subst:Welcome|headtext=Greetings!}}
|border=Color – Adds a border in the specified color, along with a light shadow. |borderradius= can optionally be used to create rounded corners: {{subst:Welcome|border=DarkViolet|borderradius=15px}}
|newuser=y – alternate text for users with zero contributions (such as accounts just made via ACC; you can also use {{subst:Welcome-newuser}}, which includes your signature). Equivalent to setting |art=newuser.
|image=File:Filename.png – Adds an image to the message (no brackets needed). |imagecaption= can optionally be used to specify the caption: {{subst:Welcome|image=File:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|imagecaption=Here, enjoy some cookies!}}. If you want to get really fancy, you can specify the image size or link here like this: {{subst:Welcome|imagecaption=400px{{!}}link{{=}}]{{!}}Caption}}.
|art=Article name – Article to which the user contributed positively (no brackets needed): {{subst:Welcome|art=Foobar}}.
- This can be set to newuser to produce the same text as setting |newuser=y when using Twinkle: {{subst:Welcome|art=newuser}}
|customstart= – Adds a custom message at the end of the first paragraph, replacing "I hope you like it here and decide to stay."
|customend= – Adds a custom ending to replace "Happy editing!"

Shortcut: {{subst:Wel}} ~~~~

For anonymous editors

Use {{subst:Welcome-anon}} or {{subst:Thanks}} for anonymous (IP) editors.

Wrapper

{{subst:Welcome-autosign}} (or {{subst:wela}}) invokes this template but includes your signature.
