Mcint: Create page

Create page

New page

I like to greet new users to induct them into wiki culture! It's good to maximize the value they get out of the wiki, and help them contribute back in ways that scale & help the wiki & community flourish. ''KP: Thrive''

=Process=
1. '''Invite or approve users:'''
:* Invite by email directly, at [[Special:InviteSignup]]. ''(Findable via, last section: [[Special:SpecialPages#Other_special_pages]])''
:* Coordinate to use [[Special:ConfirmAccounts]], approving requested accounts. ''(Provided by [[mw:Extension:ConfirmAccount]]. Findable via every page header [[Special:AdminLinks]] when logged in, and on sidebar's [[Special:SpecialPages#Users_and_rights|Special pages]])''
:* ''(Or find [https://www.noisebridge.net/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&username=&group=&creationSort=1&desc=1&wpsubmit=&wpFormIdentifier=mw-listusers-form&offset=&limit=500 recently added users] - via [[Special:ListUsers]])''

2. (Assess readiness &) '''Grant permissions.''' [[Noisebridge:Administrator]] & [[Noisebridge:Bureaucrat]] encompass all the permissions necessary to do ... basically everything on the wiki. [[:User:Mcint/Todo||add links]]

3. '''Add [[#Welcome statement]]''' to new user's talk page, encourage them to make a user page, for personality & connecting online/offline. (Maybe a category addition would help, a link to follow, gentle introduction to categories. Categ:NewUser Categ:NewTalk, Categ:NewBridger)

4. Later follow-up (days/weeks/months): in-person, online chat, email/discourse, or via others; ensure they're comfortable with it, know who they can talk to,
