User:Pdebee/Welcoming users

This is a list of the Welcome templates I use regularly, sometimes after monitoring the User creation log.

Method
Insert one of the following templates at the new joiner's talk page:
 *   &mdash; adds the signature automatically but does not create a new section; so, create a new section with a header first, then add the template.
 *   &mdash; adds the signature automatically but does not create a new section; so, create a new section with a header first, then add the template.
 *  ~  &mdash; creates a new Welcome! section but requires the signature, as shown.
 *   &mdash; is very detailed, and can be used for IPs. Adds the signature automatically but does not create a new section; so, create a new section with a header first, then add the template.
 *  ~  &mdash; is for anonymous users; less detailed but encourages getting a username.
