Custom signatures are a way of identifying a user's talk page messages besides simple text, and can be modified in any way text can. Small images are also allowed.
How to make and use custom signatures
To make a basic custom signature:
- Go to Special:MyPage/sig
- Copy-paste
[[User:Example|Example]] ([[User talk:Example|talk]])
, replacingExample
with your username, then make modifications as desired. - Go to Special:Preferences, scroll to the signature section, and paste
{{User:Example/sig}}
, replacingExample
with your username, then check the treat signature as wikitext box on. - Scroll to the bottom and hit save. Signing comments with
~~~~
now uses your custom signature.
Guidelines for custom signautures
- Your signature needs to identify who you are.
- Text should contrast the page background enough to be legible.
- Don't make the text massive or too small to read.
- Be sure to link to your userpage and user talk page.
- Don't make signatures exessively long.
- No line breaks.
- Be sure to put closing tags on any formatting.
- No more than two images, and images must be 24px high or shorter and inline. (
[[File:Filename.ext|x24px]]
