Welcome Message

I appreciate your enthusiasm to make me part of the community, but I don't believe I need the welcome messege kicking around my talk page.

It's just that things really are not supposed to be deleted from talk pages of any kind (See Help:Talk Pages). If you really don't want old discussions here I guess it will be okay... Sorry about that :). --Green Dragon 16:04, 15 October 2007 (MDT)

Yeah I just didn't want that big-ass welcome screen here... It's my bad.--Gruegirl 18:15, 18 October 2007 (MDT)

Do you think that welcome message is overkill? What could be improved? --Green Dragon 20:32, 18 October 2007 (MDT)

Well it's IMMENSE! I want my page to be small, especially because I'm new, I want there to be open space for others to comment and meet with me and talk to me like you're doing. I don't want them to see that enormous page-filling welcome screen and think twice about adding to the talk page. The welcome screen should be much smaller, more conscise. --Gruegirl 12:36, 19 October 2007 (MDT)

Do you think we should have a "click here" sort of thing that links to a welcome page? ie: "Welcome to the site. If you would like to know more you can read about it at some page name". --Aarnott 00:15, 20 December 2007 (MST)

Yeah that makes sense. Rather then having that huge welcome screen in my talk page... I'd personally rather have a clean talk page and stumble blindly through the site then have that monster sitting there when I make an account. --Gruegirl 00:30, 20 December 2007 (MST)

Although, alternatively, you can also just archive your welcome discussion right away so it no longer gets in the way... --Green Dragon 22:59, 20 December 2007 (MST)

Technically that's what I did... and it was re-posted twice hehe... but it's in my history page and shall be for all eternity!--Gruegirl 02:00, 21 December 2007 (MST)

Although archives are fairly different (see my user talk page for example) than history... But, it's all good. --Green Dragon 22:17, 24 December 2007 (MST)

For all this talk of not having a welcome section, there's sure a lot of welcoming going on. Indent party! --Othtim 23:40, 14 January 2008 (MST)

Indent party at the water cooler! Free bagels at the water cooler!--Gruegirl 16:17, 16 February 2008 (MST)
