abstract
| - My English Wiki's Signature policy is as follows. In order to identify users and attribute comments and votes on talk pages, forum threads, and other discussion pages on My English Wiki, user comments must be signed. This is particularly important on pages where voting is involved: votes which are unsigned and undated may be considered invalid. The standard signature on Wikia (produced via ~~~~ or ~~~ to provide a signature without the date) consists of a simple link to your user page. This can be customized in your preferences under "user profile." You can create a custom signature by checking the "raw signatures" box, and entering the MediaWiki code for your new signature in the "Nickname" field. There are several restrictions you must follow when creating a customized signature:
* You may only have one picture in your signature. This picture may not:
* Be an animated .gif file.
* Have more than one image.
* Be more than 19 pixels in height (this limit exists for a reason)
* Violate User Image Policy (meaning, for example, that the image must be appropriate for general viewing, must have a proper copyright tag, and will count towards your personal image upload limit if not in general use on My English Wiki.)
* You must have a link back to your userpage in your signature.
* You must include your actual user name, or an image depicting it, in your signature.
* You may include only one relevant link in your signature. You may use it to link to your talk page, contributions, etc.
* If you are using a template for your custom signature (such as {{User:Username/Sig}}), you must enter {{Subst:User:Username/Sig}} in your preferences. The following are specifically prohibited:
* Magic words such as {{PAGENAME}}.
* Line-breaks ().
