Usage

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:w-basic}}

Instructions

  • To add a message in an additional paragraph before the last sentence, use:
{{subst:w-basic|message}}

{{subst:w-basic|anon=true}}

{{subst:w-basic|npov=true}}
  • To link to a specific article in regards to the NPOV problem, use:
{{subst:w-basic|npov=true|article=article}}
  • To add a border, use:
{{subst:w-basic|border=color}}
Replace color with the name or code of the color you'd like to use. This can be in either named (e.g., DarkOrchid) or hexadecimal (e.g., #9932CC) format. For a list of colors, see web colors.

Replace your text with type in the text you want to replace "Welcome..." with.
