Is this the correct controller?

def index():
    """
    example action using the internationalization operator T and flash
    rendered by views/default/index.html or views/generic.html

    if you need a simple wiki simple replace the two lines below with:
    return auth.wiki()
    """
    response.flash = T("Welcome to web2py!")
    return auth.wiki()
