Template:Welcome
Welcome!
Hello, Welcome, and welcome to the Paragon Wiki! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Feel free to fill out your personal user page so we can get to know you. There is a collection of Userboxes you can easily add there. Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.
Don't forget to drop by and introduce yourself in the forum. It will require a separate registration (login and password), but most users use the same username in both places. There's even an RSS Feed, if you're into that.
If you need help, ask me on my talk page or ask on the forums and someone will try to to answer your questions shortly.
Also, make sure you take a look at the Help page. There are a lot of preloaded images, missions, and contact info templates, and what you want to add might already be there.
Again, welcome! -- ~~~~
Usage
This template should be subst'd for proper usage:
{{subst:welcome}}
That will place the contents of the welcome message on the user's talk page. The message will autosign itself, so you do not need to manually add -- ~~~~ at the end.
Some users have a signature that already includes the dashes. If you would like to omit the auto-signature and supply your own, you can use the template as such:
{{subst:welcome|~~~~}}
That will replace the automatic -- ~~~~ with the ~~~~ you provided.
