Wikipedia talk:Welcoming committee/members

This is getting far too large. Probably time to turn it into a user category. Isomorphic 02:11, 14 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

We could possibly have a monthly roll call. Deckiller 02:22, 14 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

We could use Category:User Wikipedia/Welcoming committee, similar to Category:User Wikipedia/RC patrollers. Or Category:Welcoming committee, similar to Category:Esperanzians? Then we could create a userbox which includes the category. haz (user talk)e 20:19, 20 February 2006

Welcoming welcomers

edit

Should we welcome people onto the welcome committee, or is that too ironic?--ikiroid | (talk) 03:02, 20 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

I used to do that, but I kind of lost track a while back. Some people thought it was ironic, but most of them appreciated it anyway. We should probably start doing it again. So, should we form a subdivision of the welcoming committee called Wikipedia:Welcoming Committee/Welcoming Committee? Um, probably not. A template might be helpful, though. --TantalumTelluride 03:56, 20 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Greeting Collections

edit

As I was settling on a customized greeting to post, I noticed quite a variety. Yes, I know we have a template, but would it serve well to collect these on a subpage here for convenient posting. It would become kind of like a Welcome Wagon kit. --CTSWyneken 21:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

To Join...

edit

Are there any requirements to join? I expect not. The WikiWhippet (deeds)

WP:WC states:
"There are no requirements for joining us save a good attitude and a willingness to show newcomers some of the ropes and field questions."
So... welcome to the welcoming committee... ;-) --oKtosiTe talk 18:04, 6 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Some members of committee are no longer active

edit

Essjay mentions on his user page that he has retired. What is wikipedia etiquette? Have user remove their own name? Remove it for them? With articles, it's clear. One edits out mistakes or facts that are no longer true.VK35 21:49, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Small layout issue in Firefox 2 on OS X

edit

The {{Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Navigation}} box gets wrapped to two lines on lower resolutions, hiding the first line of text on the page behind it. --oKtosiTe talk 12:57, 24 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Archive for this page?

edit

Does anyone have a problem with me creating subpages for the list of members? I have a 5mbit/s internet connection, and this page still takes quite a while to load/scroll. I can only imagine what it is like for users who don't have broadband internet. Thingg (talk) 22:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think that's a great idea. Bassg☢☢nist T C 05:40, 22 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Sound OK. Spiby 08:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Maybe we could just make 2 pages, one for users who's usernames begin with A-M, and one for those beginning with N-Z plus inactive and former members.--Iner22 (talk) 01:32, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Cleanup

edit

I started looking at committee members with red linked user pages, and took the liberty of deleting a couple of them. Feel free to check them out and their contributions. --WikiWes77 (talk) 04:51, 26 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Userbox

edit

This group needs a userbox so its members can display their participation in the group. Camyoung54 (talk) 04:23, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Add {{User wikipedia/Welcoming Committee}} to your userpage. Greengreengreenred 04:29, 27 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Well....

No requirements, right? --Hans5958 / Hans T.M Lets Talk! Guestbook 10:42, 1 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

No requirements! But the project itself is pretty quiet. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 20:06, 13 October 2017 (UTC).Reply

I need a technical help

edit

Could someone please help me the add my name to the list? My name has been added to the category, just after I added one of the related templates to my user page. But, here in this very project page, when I add my name to the list and look at the preview, the immediate name after mine starts with #1! I don't know what the problem is.

I just fixed it. – Hamid Hassani (talk) 07:34, 13 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
