Template:Welcome/doc

undefined is the template which automatically gets stamped on a new registered user's talk page. As of 19:22, September 20, 2011 (UTC), it is best used by User:Wikia, the welcome bot. It does not function entirely when used manually by a human editor.

The sample output below generally shows the form of the message, but the special variables ($1, $2, $3, $4), only work for User:Wikia. These variables don't universally get filled in if a human editor uses this template manually.

Usage
This template should generally not be used by any human users of this site. Changes in this template will not be reflected in the message used by User:Wikia. This is effectively a dummy template, now that the welcoming process has been fully automated.

However, if you run across a user that has made edits but has not been welcomed automatically by User:Wikia, please do manually emplace this template. Occasionally, User:Wikia fails in its duties and needs a little human help.

Sample output
The following is provided as reference only. The actual form will be different when applied by User:Wikia.
