Hi there!

Welcome!

Welcome to our wiki, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements.

Read this first as it provides many great resources designed to help users get oriented with the wiki and become part of the community.
Visit the recent changes to see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.
Questions? You can ask at the help desk or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, or post a message on my talk page!
Need help? The community portal has an outline of the site, and pages to help you learn how to edit.

I'm really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!

hi!
It pleases me that I made a wee smasher happy. Also how do turn this thing on --Quilt (talk) 04:56, 30 August 2013 (EDT)

To do

You generally can't edit other people's userpages without their permission, let alone rewrite the entire page. Scr7Scr7 sig.png(talk · contribs) 06:46, 31 August 2013 (EDT)

Do you want to settle this over a game of Mario Kart? --Quilt (talk) 06:49, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
If you completely change his userpage you'll probably be blocked for vandalism, but either way, I can play MKWii online against you. Scr7Scr7 sig.png(talk · contribs) 06:57, 31 August 2013 (EDT)

Your welcome

Don't welcome users that don't make any mainspace edits, and use the {{subst:welcome}} template to welcome them. Conny Airconny Snake Sig.png 21:25, 5 September 2013 (EDT)

Alright, that's enough. What exactly is wrong the way I greeted Spychicken? You could have added additional information that you felt was needed instead of removing my welcome altogether and subtituting your own. Spychicken explicitly stated that the major reason the account was made was to connect with other people, and as far as I know, not making contributions while using the account for miscellaneous purposes it not smiled upon across the wiki and Spychicken needed to know that and given an opportunity for an outlet before running head long into a guideline violation. Additionally, this comes right after attempting to derail another discussion topic I made. Start making constructive talk page edits. --Quilt (talk) 21:35, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
Look, why the hell are you going to fret over this? First of all, I said to not welcome users with you own welcome and to use the template. And, why and go welcome a user who hasn't even made a proper mainspace edit? Then, should we welcome every single registered account? First, that welcome wasn't even welcoming at all, clearly you were talking about other subjects (such as the DDoS attacks which have no purpose in welcoming others). Secondly, don't include links to external sites with malicious and or are in poor taste, such as Reddit. Thirdly, the info you wanted to tell him is already stated in SW:FIRST in the welcome template. Fourthly, as stated previously, don't welcome users who made no edits at all. Quite frankly, why don't you abide by the standard? Conny Airconny Snake Sig.png 21:44, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
Conny, I agree that the user should not have been welcomed this early, and that the template is much better at doing so. However, after looking at SW:TALK, the only thing about his welcome that should have been changed was his linking to Reddit. JamesJH-Heartless.pngHeart 22:01, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
Conny and I take issue with the general tone of Quilt's welcome, which was not a welcoming tone, but rather one that is antagonistic toward the SmashWiki and its policies, which are personal issues that should not be in a "welcome." As a minor side note, we shouldn't be talking about the DDoS, especially in a welcome. DoctorPain99 22:06, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
I did feel that too, but I do not think it's enough to flat-out change the welcome itself. Though, if you feel that the DDoS is that big of an issue (it was removed from other talk pages), I suppose you're justified in removing that part of the welcome. JamesJH-Heartless.pngHeart 22:11, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
In this case, we're going to follow the spirit of the policy rather than the letter of the policy. A welcome should be proper and welcoming more than Quilt's content should be archived. DoctorPain99 22:13, 5 September 2013 (EDT)
