**I didn't know you could make it a subst-only template. Sounds right to me, if that's the case. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 02:18, 20 February 2007 (EST) |

Now that the Portal:New Users has links to all the basic help sections, would it be time to do some cleanup in this template I noticed when adding a link that it is getting rather lengthy. -- Cuardin 15:16, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- I'd keep the help links, personally. That way, even if a user doesn't go to the new user portal, they have links for their later reference about how a Wiki works. But perhaps some of the other info could be moved to the portal.--Hardvice (talk) 15:25, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- I won't go changing that template, but I definately feel that it needs some serious love. -- Cuardin 15:30, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- I agree. It needs cleanup, but the original idea was to give people some useful links on their talk page, so they can always find them. It can probably be better formatted and streamlined, though.--Hardvice (talk) 15:33, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- Agree, but I don't have any concrete ideas. I love the help box here - great idea. (Though, did you check this out - wow, that's weird to see...) - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:48, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- Well, it is one link for every entry on a talk page... -- Cuardin 15:50, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- Only because most people don't substitute the welcome template. That makes me nervous, since it makes it a huge target for mass vandalism.--Hardvice (talk) 16:13, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- You're saying it's better to subs the page. Never thought of that. I'll try that next time... - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 17:00, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- Well, it's nice if it's not substituted that it updates when we make changes. But that means someone can also edit the template, and suddenly six hundred people have goatse on their talk pages. It's easy enough to revert, but you just can't unsee goatse.--Hardvice (talk) 18:16, 29 January 2007 (EST)

- Only because most people don't substitute the welcome template. That makes me nervous, since it makes it a huge target for mass vandalism.--Hardvice (talk) 16:13, 29 January 2007 (EST)
- I made an attempt. It still feels very rough, though. -- Cuardin 16:07, 29 January 2007 (EST)

Substitute-Only?
- Including rather than substituting this template is causing the section edit links on user's talk pages to be off by one. Should we make this into a substitute-only template?--Hardvice (talk) 02:12, 20 February 2007 (EST)
