Thread:Project talk:New contributors/Greeters/Ideas when thinking how to fix 'Find a greeter'/reply (15)

It's been fun to work on this. Contributing to projects in the Wikimedia sphere seems much more in reach now. Thanks for the push.

Just a wording suggestion:

Current: When the Starter kit is not enough, Greeters can help you: Suggested: Check out the Starter Kit first. Next, Greeters can help you:

I feel like the current message is 'don't use greeters unless you really need them'. I worry that might make people who are confused by the Starter kit feel like they aren't skilled enough to contribute. Also, does it preclude new users just introducing themselves on the greeter thread without a specific question--which seems like a good way to make a connection with them and keep them in the community? I understand if you don't think there are enough greeters to go around, though. I just want to make sure the tone is right.
