 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Welcome Scouting}}). |
This welcoming template for the Scouting Wikiproject shows specific templates {{Scouting Welcome-anon}} for anonymous users and {{Scouting Welcome-reg}} for registered users. Both these welcome templates conclude with {{Scouting WP invite}} which may be used on its own to invite established editors (who do not need a welcoming to Wikipedia itself) to join the Scouting project.
Usage edit
The template should be substituted into an editor's talk page, thus:
{{subst:Welcome Scouting}} --~~~~
