Template:Wikipedian
Hello [name]! Welcome to Wikivoyage.
To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page.
If you are a Wikipedian, then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:
- NPOV → be fair (not quite the same thing!)
- be bold → plunge forward
- Village pump → travellers' pub
- External links → We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
- sandbox → graffiti wall
- stub tagging → article status
It may also be very useful for you to check out Wikivoyage:Welcome, Wikipedians. If you need help, take a look at Wikivoyage:Help, or else post a message in the Wikivoyage:Travellers' pub, as a reply below or on my talk page. Thanks for contributing!
Usage
[edit]Some MediaWiki functions don't work right with threads without headings. Please manually insert one, or use the parameter h=y to have a default heading of "Welcome!".
Do not simply include this template in a User_talk page; it won't work right: {{wikipedian}}.
This template must only be used by substitution:
==Welcome!==
{{subst:wikipedian}}
[any additional advice]

or
{{subst:wikipedian|h=y}}
