Additional tips...

• Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp).

• If you would like to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.

Good luck, and have fun. --~~~~

Instructions

• To greet a user with this template just as it appears above (your signature will automatically replace the ~~~~), place the following wikicode on the user's talk page:

{{subst:new-welcome}}

• If your signature already includes a dash of any sort, you should use:

{{subst:new-welcome|sig=~~~~}}

• To add a message before the last sentence, use:

{{subst:new-welcome|message}}

Replace message with your desired message. It will be inserted into the greeting before "Good luck, and have fun."

• To add a (level-2) heading above the box, use:

{{subst:new-welcome|heading=text}}

The heading will be titled as what you replace text with.

• To make the template transparent, for use on custom-designed talk pages with built-in formatting, use:

{{subst:new-welcome|clear=true}}

• The above options can be combined:

{{subst:new-welcome|Hello there.|heading=true|headtext=Welcome to our wiki}}
