Template talk:Welcome

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Just a note, an easy way to find new users editing without a talk page is with recent changes. It can be easier too, if you load up a few hundred, and hide anons and yourself, and then load this CSS in your user css:

ul.special li a+a+a+a+a.new, 
ul.special li span.newpage+a+a+a.new, 
ul.special li a[title="Special:Log/upload"]+a+a.new, 
ul.special li a[title="Special:Log/move"]+a+a.new { color:#00ff00;font-weight:bold }

...all logged in users in recent changes editing without talk pages should then have bright green links to their talk pages. How it works: If the 5th link in recent changes is class="never class=new as it is the contribs link), or if the 3rd link after class="newpage" (that N by new page creation) is class="new", or if the second link after an upload is class="new", or if the second link after a page move is class="new", then apply the above css style to that link. You can choose other colors, sizes, or even an accompanying image, eg { color: #00ff00; background: url(images/thumb/d/d5/Crown.gif/16px-Crown.gif) center left no-repeat; padding-left: 18px; }. --Splaka 03:49, 21 June 2006 (UTC)


Update:

ul.special li a[title ^="User talk:"].new { color:#00ff00;font-weight:bold }
ul.special li a[title ="Special:Contributions"] + a[title ^="User talk:"].new { color:#CC2200;font-weight:normal }

Should do it in just 2 lines, and work even without hiding logged in users. Needs mozilla (or a good css browser at least). --Splaka 00:01, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

HEY[edit source]

Better type an own welcome message, templates are for n00bs. Walter Humala - Emperor of West WikipediaCrystal Clear app korganizer.png|wanna Talk? 02:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Can We...[edit source]

Put a link to the Adopt-a-N00b page on this template? Oli said he would, then he didn't. Damn Brits.-Sir Ljlego, GUN VFH FIYC WotM SG WHotM PWotM AotM EGAEDM ANotM + (Talk) 22:32, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Can We...make a category for new noobs, so it'll mesh with Uncyclopedia:List of New Users so we can harass say hi to new guys/gals who want to contribute freshness into our stale existence. Sir Severian Severian1.jpg CUN.png (Sprich mit mir!) Kraut.png

{{Editprotected}}

Can we add a few links to UN:R and UN:CM. It would like like this:

Also, where it says Thank you for your contributions, we should change it to Thank you for your contributions--Sir Manforman CUN.png 15:44, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Never mind, this was unprotected--Sir Manforman CUN.png 21:02, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Idea![edit source]

Add the UnSignpost - if they subscribe, it'll help them feel a part of the community, even if they are just noobs!  Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize  writings  critchat) 00:26 May 10, 2008

Done. ~Jewriken.GIF 18:28, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
That's the handsomest smartest idea you've ever had, Mordillo!   Le Cejak <May 11, 2008 [17:09]>
  • That box was both ugly and cumbersome. Plus, I can't really see how this Signpost-buisness will make them feel part of the community. -- The Zombiebaron 20:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
    • Well, how about you just try to make it nicer instead of removing it? But anyhow, I think our little campaign had run its course. ~Jewriken.GIF 07:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Signature button[edit source]

The signature button that the welcome template references (Button sig.png) was changed when we split from wikia. This probably should be updated. --Snippy 08:03, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Wiki guide[edit source]

Should we add Uncyclopedia:The Wikipedian's Guide to Uncyclopedia to this template? It's definitely a helpful guide, but perhaps it might be too much info or make the template/message too cumbersome. Any thoughts? MrX blow me Emoji-drool.gif 18:11, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
