This is a documentation subpage for Template:Welcome (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

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.
