To use this template, copy and paste {{subst:user:bottesini/welcome}} — ~~~~ on to the user's talk page.
It automatically subst's the user's name if the template is subst'd, so it doesn't have {{PAGENAME}} in the code on the user's page.
Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, Bottesini/welcome, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope that you enjoy editing here and continue to do so.
I suggest reviewing the following fundamental links:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
If you need help, there are several things you can do:
- Check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question
- Ask me on my talk page
- Ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page
- Place
{{helpme}}on your talk page (someone will show up very shortly to answer your questions) - Most importantly, don't be afraid to ask!
If you want to mess around with Wikipedia, I invite you to do so in my own personal sandbox (just follow the simple rules!) or in the Wikipedia sandbox. The most important thing I can tell a newcomer is to sign your posts! Just type four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your username and the date.If you have any questions, please don't be afraid to ask!
Happy editing!
