Usage
{{new user article}}
This template is for articles that have been recently created or expanded by new users. Its purpose is to remind experienced users to be nice to newcomers who have submitted articles that may or may not follow all the relevant guidelines, and to encourage constructive interactions between newcomers and experienced users.
This template may be placed by the creator or by any other user. It should be placed in article space. The template should be removed by an experienced editor once all major style and content issues have been dealt with.
The creator can put their username in the first parameter, which will give a link to the listed user's talk page. For example, {{new user article|Example}} will give a link to User talk:Example, as follows:
 | This is an article recently created by a new user. More editing may be needed to meet standards, but please be courteous and assume good faith, and consider leaving a constructive message on the creator's talk page if large changes need to be made. |
