Maybe, but I want to keep that stuff to an absolute minimum. Users won’t read anything you put in front of them anyway. And the ones that do, are smart enough not to need a lot of what you would tell them anyway.

However – the “welcome to forum” is something we _DO_ need to seed. @sam I know [you asked me to put in the markdown in the repo](https://meta.discourse.org/t/suggestion-short-description-on-main-page-and-category-pages/5458/9) but I need you to please copy the text and make it happen.

Edit: this is now properly seeded on all new Docker installs.
