RetroTechCollection>Mathglot: Restore some of links present here for many years. People targeted with belated-welcome certainly 'have already made several edits', but by definition, they have never received any welcome template which contain any of these links before, and can still benefit from them. Drop two, to keep it leaner than before (e.g., we don't need two Help forums), while still proving a basic groundwork.

Restore some of links present here for many years. People targeted with belated-welcome certainly 'have already made several edits', but by definition, they have never received any welcome template which contain any of these links before, and can still benefit from them. Drop two, to keep it leaner than before (e.g., we don't need two Help forums), while still proving a basic groundwork.

== A belated welcome! ==

{{safesubst:<noinclude />#ifeq:{{safesubst:<noinclude />Yesno|{{{cookies|y}}}|yes=true}}|true|[[File:Chocolate chip cookies.jpg|thumb|The welcome may be belated, but the cookies are still warm! {{smiley}}]]|}}

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, {{SAFESUBST:<noinclude />BASEPAGENAME}}! I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for [[Special:Contributions/{{SAFESUBST:<noinclude />BASEPAGENAME}}|your contributions]]{{safesubst:<noinclude />#if:{{{article|{{{art|}}}}}}|, including your edits to [[:{{{article|{{{art}}}}}}]]}}{{safesubst:<noinclude/>#invoke:MultiReplace|main|{{{article|{{{art}}}}}}|.*%.%s*$||.*|.}} Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may still benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

{{Div col|colwidth=18em}}
* [[Help:Introduction|Introductory tutorial]]
* [[Help:Your first article|Your first article]]
* [[Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia|Contributing to Wikipedia]]
* [[Wikipedia:Five pillars|Five pillars of Wikipedia]]
* [[Wikipedia:Article development|Article development]]
* [[Wikipedia:Help desk|Help desk]]
{{Div col end}}

If you have questions, '''{{edit|Special:MyTalk|just use this link to ask for help|section=new|preload=Help:Contents/helpmepreload|preloadtitle=Help me!}}'''; a volunteer will visit you here shortly!

Need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Try the [[Wikipedia:Task Center|Task Center]].

{{safesubst:<noinclude />IP-talk|'''Do you know about the advantages of getting a free account?'''

You don't have to [[Special:Userlogin|log in]] to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|additional privileges]], you can simply '''{{plainlinks|{{fullurl:Special:Userlogin|type=signup&campaign=anonwelcometemplate}}|create a named account}}'''. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
* '''[[Wikipedia:Your first article|Create new pages]]''' and '''[[Help:How to move a page|rename pages]]'''
* Edit '''[[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Semi-protection|semi-protected pages]]'''
* '''[[Help:Files#Uploading files|Upload images]]'''
* Have your own '''[[Help:Watchlist|watchlist]]''', which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have [[WP:AUTOC|had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits]]. If you edit without using a named account, your [[IP address]] ({{ {{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}) is used to identify you instead.

}}I hope you enjoy editing here and being a [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]! Again, welcome! ~~<noinclude />~~<noinclude>
