Welcome

  • {{Anon}} Good wiking, ~~~~
  • {{Welcome3|Gadig}}

Hi, '''{{PAGENAME}}''', and '''[[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]]''' to [[Wikipedia]], the free encyclopedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

  • To sign your posts (on [[Wikipedia:Tutorial (Talk pages)|talk pages]], for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
  • Try the [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Tutorial]], and feel free to experiment in the [[Wikipedia:Test area|test area]].
  • To post an image try [[Wikipedia:Image tutorial]], but remember to look out for [[wikipedia:Copyright FAQ|copyright violations]]
  • Stay away from [[Wikipedia:Avoiding_common_mistakes|common mistakes]]
  • If you need [[Wikipedia:Help|help]], post a question at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|Help Desk]] or on my user [[User_talk:Gadig|talk page]]
  • Explore, [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|be bold]], and, most importantly, have fun!
  • Oh, and don't forget to tell something about yourself on [[User:{{PAGENAME}}|your user page]]!

Good luck! ~~~~

[edit] Warning templates

Note that these need not be used sequentially. If the edit is clearly vandalism, consider starting with test2. For continuing severe vandalism, test3 may be skipped and a test4 given straight after a test2. If, however, you are not sure that the edit is vandalism, always start with test1.

{{subst:test1}} 
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.
{{subst:test2}} 
Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.
{{subst:test2a}} (a variant suitable for blanking vandalism) 
Please do not remove content from Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.
{{subst:test3}} 
Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
{{subst:test4}} 
This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.


Alternatively, you can use {{subst:test-n}}, {{subst:test2-n}}, {{subst:test2a-n}}, {{subst:test3-n}}, or {{subst:test4-n}} to explicitly state which articles were vandalized (suffix -n stands for named). e.g.:

{{subst:test-n|Diablo II}} 
This message is regarding the article Diablo II. Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. Thanks.
