Why should this template not be substed? edit

Why should this template not be substed? In de.wp, for example, people are told to subst it because new users could be confused when they just see {{welcome}} on their talk page's source code:
"Durch die Substitution wirken auch Begrüßungsvorlagen nicht so maschinell. Substituierte Vorlagen [...] verwirren Newbies weniger als durch eine direkte Einbindung." – "The substitution also makes the welcome templates not looking so automatically. Newbies are less confused by substituted templates than by direct inclusion"

The reason whas that they otherwise get a long list of all translations of "welcome". But we can add another template like "Template:Welcome translations" to this template so we can subst this template. SPQRobin 15:49, 29 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Template:Welcome/lus edit

Maybe create Template:Welcome/lus based on this translate by User:RMizo? --Kaganer (talk) 16:23, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Template:Welcome/haw edit

Im trying to create a Hawaiian version of the template but it wont let me create it. It always says error because it needs a prefix but I dont need to prefix it... it is not part of any wikis in Hawaiian but apart of incubator itself. Any suggestions?

@Kolonahe: You may translate the template on User:Kolonahe/Template:Welcome/haw. When you are finished, ask an administrator to move the translated version to Template:Welcome/haw. (As a normal user, you are allowed to create prefixed pages only, hence the error message.) - Xbspiro (talk) 05:41, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Translate extension edit

Does it make sense to use the Translate extension here? --MF-W {a, b} 17:52, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I think so. It would enable translation without admin intervention at the very least. (The one-liners from {{Welcome-translations}} could also be saved this way.) - Xbspiro (talk) 12:49, 13 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Template:Welcome/syl edit
