Thank you for your [[Special:Contributions/ShadowQuiet|recent contributions]], and for being willing to welcome new users to '''Public Test Wiki'''. We have no established policies or guidelines on ''when'' to use {{tl|welcome}}, but in the case of [[User:GrahamSH|GrahamSH]]'s user talk page, it had never been created, and you had no prior interactions with this existing user, so there was no need to create the page, as you did with [[Special:Permalink/27400|this edit]].
 
My personal "rule of thumb" is to monitor [[Special:Log/createnewusers|the user creation log]] and welcome new users with {{tl|welcome}} once they've made their ''first'' ''edit'' or ''log action'' on this wiki. Often users are just browsing our [[Special:WikiDiscover|hosted wikis]] and created an account on ''this wiki'' by merely ''visiting'' it.
 
Let me know if you would like a task or two to help out if you want to help with improving this wiki (other than performing tests).
