Hello,

I recently did a survey of 100 Wikimedia projects, to see what their
template:welcome and MediaWiki:Welcomecreation messages were like.
(MediaWiki:Welcomecreation is the first message new users see when
they have successfully registered an account.)

In my opinion, one of the best Welcomecreation messages was Vietnamese
Wiktionary's at
http://vi.wiktionary.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcomecreation .

There is a translation in English here:
http://vi.wiktionary.org/wiki/Th%E1%BA%A3o_lu%E1%BA%ADn_MediaWiki:Welcomecreation
(the talk page of the previous message)

which could be useful if you want to update the Welcomecreation
message for your own wiki.

regards,
Brianna
