How To edit

To insert a template into a page, simply include the wikitext "{{address of template}}" - for example, the above is {{User:Eitch/Templates/Userpage}}.

It'd be cool if you left me a note to say you're using it (then I'll also be able to warn you if I ever make changes to the template).

My Templates edit

The template for my user page box (as seen at the top of my user page) is here: User:Eitch/Templates/Userpage.

The template for my user talk page box (as seen at the top of my user talk page) is here: User:Eitch/Templates/Usertalk

Customizing the Main Page edit

For instructions on how to customize the page shown for the Main Page in your account, see the bottom of Wikipedia:Main_Page_alternatives. There are some alternatives there, and I have some templates that'll help you build a personal Main Page... if you like hide/show boxes.

Framed hidden easily makes things that look like TFP, Sisters, or Languages - hide/show boxes with a frame.
Hidden2 easily makes things that look like TFA, DYK, ITN, or OTD.
Welcome banner makes a welcome banner - customize the stuff to the right of and below "welcome to wp"

You'll find fairly thorough documentation if you follow any of those links. See User:Eitch/Main Page for an example.
