 > The welcome box on the dashboard is only supposed to be shown to the
 originating admin user, no one else. This was specifically so that we
 wouldn't have to worry about who had what permissions etc.

 The issue is if the welcome panel is shown again by an administrator. The
 solution would be to do an actual get_post(1) and get_post(2) and ensure
 they exist. We're already doing a get_permalink(1) and get_permalink(2) so
 there won't be additional queries. The string might need to be modified a
 bit.

 "Create an About Me page", as far as I know, was designed to take the
 individual to the main Pages screen, after which they can click 'Add New'.
