Welcome template
Just any FYI, I made a minor fix to your welcome template as you did not close off the  tag. That caused your welcome template formatting to flow into comments that followed after your template.

One suggestion that I have for you is that you should substitute your welcome template with instead of transcluding it. That way any changes you make to the template stick to the newly welcomed editor's page. It's how all of the other welcome templates are used. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:56, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ohh, sorry about that. Thanks for making the fix. I will be sure to use the subst instead. Thanks again! Freezing in Wisconsin (talk) 04:57, 6 February 2008 (UTC)


 * No problem. =) It's up to you if you want to go back and subst the ones that you already did.  It's probably a good idea, but not strictly necessary. =)  One reason you might want to is that some new editors might stumble on your welcome template, edit it by accident trying to leave you a message, and then their changes propagates to everybody else.  It sounds strange, but I've seen similar things happen. =) -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:10, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
