Re: Templates
Hi! Welcome! Wikinews is a very different project to Wikipedia, and as such we have our own conventions, Templates, and whatnot. I ask what specific template you were looking for? I might be able to point you in the direction of a similar template or otherwise advise you! As for user edit counts, you will be able to find it using this tool. I'll send you a welcome message below, hopefully it will be able to help you out. --Skenmy(t•c•w•i) 19:27, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome
, welcome to Wikinews! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Our key policies - if you read anything, read these! Here a few pointers to help you get to know Wikinews: There are always things to do on Wikinews: By the way, you can sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the water cooler or to anyone on the Welcommittee, or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! --Skenmy(t•c•w•i) 19:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
