Disputatio Formulae:Salve

E Vicipaedia

Meo animo haec pagina miscenda est cum ope nexibusque pro usoribus novis, cum signo sicut

superstante. Deinde non necesse sit tenere *Ops nexusque pro usoribus novis (en, de) pro exemplo. Debemus textum salvendi convertere quoque in linguas in quibus Ops nexusque pro usoribus novis translati sint...--Ioshus Rocchio 23:39, 7 Martii 2006 (UTC)

I think we will need several pages ;-)

1. Formula:Salve
   1. for placing {{salve}} on a users talk page
   2. it should have a short content, so that the user can leave it on his talk page ... at least for some time (so it can work as a marker that this user has already been welcomed)
   3. it should have a link to a list of links and hints
   4. it should be multilingual, so it shoud have a selection bar for the several languages; so we need another page ...
2. Formula:Salve (navigatio)(?)
   1. just for technical reasons
   2. is a selection bar for the several languages with the link text "Salve!", "Welcome!", etc.
3. Something like Ops nexusque pro usoribus novis (maybe better: Vicipaedia:Ops nexusque pro usoribus novis)
   1. a long list of links, hints etc.
   2. it should be multilingual, so it shoud have a selection bar for the several languages; so we need another page ...
4. Something like Formula:Ops nexusque pro usoribus novis (navigatio)
   1. just for technical reasons
   2. is a selection bar for the several languages (maybe not with a link text like "Salve!", "Welcome!", etc.)
5. A page corresponding to en:Wikipedia:Welcoming committee
6. Maybe the wording of Formula:Salve could be in a way that it can be even placed on the pagina prima? I am not sure, if this is possible, so maybe we need another template (just for the maintainability of the language links)

These are just some ideas to consider, it's not a mature concept. --Roland2 07:08, 8 Martii 2006 (UTC)

Or what about this?

Content of Formula:Salve/en:

Salve! - Welcome! - Willkommen! ...

Welcome here, the Welcoming Committee offers you this navigation bar as a "welcoming gift" and
we hope you enjoy the Latin WP. Please ask us, if you need assistance.

Just another idea, not mature at all ... --Roland2 07:28, 8 Martii 2006 (UTC)

Nonnulla grammatica emendavi; etiam nonnulli tituli mutandi erunt. Alteram paginam recensere mihi hodie non vacat. usor:Bohmhammel 20.42 (UTC) 8 Idus Mart. 2006

[recensere] format

Is it possible, Roland, UV, or some other wikipotente, to do something like {{salve|Nomen Usoris in casu vocativo}} so that their name will come up bolded right after the Salve and before the !?--Ioshus Rocchio 15:06, 21 Augusti 2006 (UTC)

I think I have just proven that it is possible … ;-)

That new parameter is optional: If you omit it, it works as in the past (just Salve! etc.)

There is a second parameter (optional as well): it can be m for Gratus etc., f for Grata etc., or omitted for Gratus aut grata etc. --UV 23:47, 22 Augusti 2006 (UTC)

UV, man, sometimes you really make my day.--Ioshus Rocchio 00:30, 23 Augusti 2006 (UTC)

That's awesome!! Course... I'll probably just omit the gender whenever I do this, because otherwise I'll live in terror of getting it wrong ;) --Iustinus 00:50, 23 Augusti 2006 (UTC)

[recensere] Suggestions

Since since names are such a problem for newbies, should Vicipaedia:Translatio nominum propriorum be on this formula? If not, it should at least go on the list of helpful links. --Iustinus 20:34, 15 Septembris 2006 (UTC)

A good idea. Honestly I think we should trim the whole thing/make it less ominous to tirones. I notice a lot of people just dive right in without reading anything on the salve message. Maybe this is because it's bigger/more unsightly than some of its other language counterparts? But tnp is definitely a priority in terms of links.--Ioshus ^(disp) 01:21, 16 Septembris 2006 (UTC)

Well, I did translate it pretty directly from an English version, though I don't recall if the formatting was the same. Please feel free to do whatever you want to beautify it. As for shortening it... well, perhaps itw oudl be better to put a select-language link at the bottom, as is done with the invitatio formula? --Iustinus 02:47, 16 Septembris 2006 (UTC)
