About this template

Original was created by ElectricEye and brought into the {{welcomeg}} template by Tijuana Brass, from there - this was hijacked to User:Versageek/ws so she could make a better looking {{welcomespam}} template. This is still a work in progress.

This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopaedic content.
