Signing your posts (on all Philwiki talk pages - but not on articles) is an important aspect of Philwiki's developed etiquette, and an essential aspect of the community communication that helps articles to be formed and developed. Discussion helps other users who are reading talk pages to understand the progress and evolution of a dialogue, and to better offer their help, and to easier judge users who are accountable to their comments.

  • Signing your posts (on all Philwiki talk pages - but not on articles) is an important aspect of Philwiki's developed etiquette, and an essential aspect of the community communication that helps articles to be formed and developed. Discussion helps other users who are reading talk pages to understand the progress and evolution of a dialogue, and to better offer their help, and to easier judge users who are accountable to their comments. Because of this necessity, MediaWiki developers created a very easy way to create signatures. To automatically sign your posts with a date-stamp, add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your message; or add three tildes (~~~) to add just your name. (In general, using the full date-stamp is preferred.) Some editors have a special key or menu selection for inserting a Philwiki signature. (E.g., there is a Wikipedia Extension available for the Mozilla Firefox browser which adds this and many other Philwiki-specific functions to the right-click menu whenever you are editing a Philwiki article.) If you chose to contribute to Philwiki without logging in, the tildes will be converted to your IP address to be displayed as your signature. (An account actually provides you with more anonymity, if you are concerned about IP privacy issues.) You can also consider manually signing your posts with a pseudonym or tag such as --anon (although your IP address will still be stored in the page history if you edit without logging in). If your preferred signature consists of non-ASCII characters (Chinese for example), you are encouraged to use ASCII characters in them as well. This is because not everyone can view certain characters, and instead may find a box or other replacement where the non-ASCII character would properly be.
