Customizing your signature

A registered user can customize his or her signature, but within reason. Read through and understand all of the following before attempting to customize your signature.

When customizing your signature, please keep the following in mind: A distracting, confusing, or otherwise unsuitable signature may adversely affect other users. Some editors may find them disruptive to discourse on talk pages. Very long signatures that contain a lot of code ("markup") make it difficult for some editors to read while editing talk pages.

General rules and considerations

It is common practice for a signature to resemble to some degree the user name it represents.

Links

You must at least include a link to either your user page or your talk page. It may optionally also include a link to your contributions. Aside from the above three links, no other internal or external links are allowed. If there are useful pages you wish to bookmark, place them in your user page, not your signature.

Appearance

Your signature should neither inconvenience nor annoy other editors.

Length

Use short signatures, both in display and markup.

Images

One small image or icon may be included in your signature.
