Warning templates should always be used with the "subst:" keyword, as strongly suggested on Wikipedia:Template substitution. They are shown without subst here to reduce the display space occupied by this table, not to encourage their use without subst. For example, type {{subst:uw-vandalism1}}~~~~ (not {{uw-vandalism1}}) to warn common first-time vandals.
The levels of templates are:
- Assumes good faith
- No faith assumption
- Assumes bad faith; stern cease and desist
- Assumes bad faith; strong cease and desist, last warning
Living people
- Recent Changes to Living people

Welcome and Invitation
Hello anonymous IP Lumos3 from http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/ xxxxxx. (IP2 http://www.ip2location.com/demo )
I'm Lumos3, one of the many editors here. I see you've made some helpful changes to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I wonder if you have considered opening a user account on the encyclopedia. I'm posting below a standard box which sets out the benefits to you if you join us.
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have on membership, just post them on my Talk page here.
Whatever your decision I hope you continue to get pleasure from editing and making Wikipedia an even better resource for the community.

Welcome new user
Hello, XXXX , I see you've opened an account and begun to make edits to the encyclopaedia. You are most welcome and thank you for the many constructive edits you have made .
I'm Lumos3, one of the numerous editors here. I voluntarily work as a welcomer to newcomers.
Wikipedia encourages new members to jump in and make corrections and contributions to articles themselves. I'm posting below a standard welcome box with lots of useful links. I hope you get pleasure from editing and making Wikipedia an even better resource for the community.
I found the Be bold guideline particularly encouraging when I was getting started. I also found the Wikipedia:Cheatsheet a useful quick reference for editing the source text but our new VisualEditor makes editing much easier (This needs to be turned on in your user preferences under beta features).
I myself have come to the conclusion that editing or watching a topic is a great way to learn about it in depth and stay on top of current developments in a field. If you have any questions about the project don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page here :- User_talk:Lumos3.
Happy editing, I hope you continue to develop and improve our encyclopedia.
~~~~ , Wikipedia Welcoming Committee.
