| | |
| When using the instructions above, the entirety of the code for the signature is pasted onto the talk page. This may result in long strings of code simply for your signature. In order to get around this, a second template is required.
| |
| | |
| :1. After following the instructions above, Navigate to User:USERNAME'''/Sig2'''
| |
| | |
| :2. Edit the page, and simply put <nowiki>{{User:USERNAME/Sig}}</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| :3. Go to [[Special:Preferences]]
| |
| | |
| :4. In the "Signature" field, replace anything inside it with the following:
| |
| <pre style="margin-left:50px">{{SUBST:User:USERNAME/Sig2}}</pre>
| |
| | |
| Save, and now your signature will only be a few characters long instead of several lines. This will help to clean up talk pages that are suffering from excessive signatures.
