== Welcoming template == | |||
I have had a shelved draft of a welcoming template laying in a subpage for quite a while that I have dusted off and rewritten. | |||
It has a welcoming message and some links I hope will be useful to new users (and perhaps not so new ones as well). The idea is that when some of us sees that there is a new user we will add that template to the top of the new users discussion page. I am not sure about whether we should wait till the user have made some edits (to see if it is a bot) or if we should add it at once. | |||
I would like to have some more eyes on it to see for example if I should have some more or some less links, or if there is something I did not think of. I tried to use as few links as possible, while also keeping ones a new user might hope is there, but do not know where to look for. | |||
When I feel content with it I will move it to the template namespace and add a site notice linking to it for a while, as I am not sure if you all look here or on [[Special:RecentChanges]]. | |||
Anyway here is my current draft (do not hesitate to add suggestions on its discussion page): [[User:Johan G/Template:Welcome to the wiki]] | |||
