Is there a way to turn this off?
Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to turn this function off. We already have welcome templates at my wiki, and we've got a very nice system going. I think we would do better if we didn't have this. Thanks. Gamma Metroid 20:46, 23 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I suggest Special:Contact for such requests. Kirkburn (talk) 13:42, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

How about a $5
how about... $5 - the name of the currently active admin? Would help in crafting messages. &mdash; Morder 22:07, 14 April 2009 (UTC)


 * That's what Help:Welcome tool is about, or is this for use within the text? e.g. "Hello, I'm $5, and welcome to the wiki!". I've not often seen that form, but it does seem like a fairly reasonable request. I'll pass it on. Kirkburn (talk) 12:33, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes Kirkburn that's basically exactly what I was talking about :) &mdash; Morder 07:57, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Suggestion: change default to @sysop, so wikia local administrator is the one whose name is signed
I just went in and manually changed it to @sysop so when a new editor post, it welcomes them from me, and not the last administrator from some other project that did anything there. http://gantz.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Welcome_tool Shouldn't it do this by default? I'm thinking most would prefer that to the current method. You should be welcomed by someone who works at that page all the time, not just a randomly passing stranger.
