Help
If you'd like a signature that is dynamically updated, i.e., one that displays every signature you've ever left on the wiki as your current signature, here's how:
- Create a subpage for your signature. You can use mine as an example: User:Sebastian_Panache/sig
NOTE: Please don't overwrite it: Copy the code to your own subpage. - Go to your "My preferences" page (near the top right of your screen), and in the "Signature" entry box add {{SUBST:nosubst|User:YourUsername/sig}}, inserting your own usernname, of course.
- Tick the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" checkbox just below it, and you're done!
- Use the 4-tildes or signature button (File:Button sig.png) to use your saved signature in talk page messages.
