*Be welcoming to new users. Often newbies can be difficult to deal with because of their lack of experience or knowledge of wiki markup. Such users should be dealt with patiently and respectfully. If a newcomer seems to have made a mistake, try to correct it yourself: do not slam the newcomer. A gentle note at their userpage explaining the wiki's standard and how to better achieve it in the future may prove helpful, as they may be unfamiliar with the norm or merely how to achieve it. If you use ban new users, have bad manners or curse at them, they may decide not to contribute to the wiki again or may even return as a vandal. Courtesy and professionalism should always be top priority when dealing with rookies.
