Usage

{{subst:User:Brendon111/Welcome}}

or

{{subst:User:Brendon111/Welcome|1=Your user name}}

(provides a link to your talk page) but, "1=" is incidental in this case
or

{{subst:User:Brendon111/Welcome|signame=your nick name}}

(Provides the user with your "nick-name" or "signing name" of choice)
or

{{subst:User:Brendon111/Welcome|signame=your nick name|art=Article where the user has put efforts in}}

(Provides the user with your "nick-name" and shows appreciation for editor's work)
But I'd recommend,

{{subst:User:Brendon111/Welcome|1=Your user-name|signame=your nick name|art=Article where the user has put efforts in}}

(provides a link to your talk page as well as your "nick name" of choice)
