Trolling and vandalizing are '''not''' tolerated in any way at the {{SITENAME}}. If you see continual actions of any of the above, ''post a message at an '''online''' [[Special:Listusers/sysop|sysop's talk page]]'' or ''[[Special:Listusers/patroller|patroller's talk page]]'' in ''calm, non-cap letters.'' As such, the sysop or another sysop will either be online or will come online as soon as possible and block the unruly user, as well as use the special revert tool to quickly make amends. Do not give the vandals any sort of acknowledgement or attack: this is what they are aiming for and it will only encourage them to continue. | Trolling and vandalizing are '''not''' tolerated in any way at the {{SITENAME}}.

Your signature is automatically created for you when you create an account. It should be used when writing comments on talk pages, voting on <s>deletions</s> <span style="color:red">'''proposals, Features Articles, etc.'''</span>, and is left by typing <nowiki>~~~</nowiki> after your comment. Typing <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> <span style="color:red">'''(which can be done by clicking the pen icon at the top of the editing window)'''</span> leaves your signature and a <s>datestamp</s> <span style="color:red">'''timestamp'''</span> (<nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki> <s>leaves just a date</s> <span style="color:red">'''only leaves the time and date'''</span>). <s>Signature and datestamp are preferable.</s> <span style="color:red">'''A signature with a timestamp is preferable as it shows the exact time and date when the comment was made.'''</span><br> | |||
<span style="color:green">'''"Datestamp" was replaced with "timestamp" as [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Signatures MediaWiki refers to it as a timestamp as well], minor fixes, last sentence is to explain the importance of having a timestamp.'''</span> | |||
Personalized signatures are allowed, by | |||
#editing the designated field on [[Special:Preferences]], | |||
#creating a userspace subpage at [[Special:Mypage/sig]] (it ''must'' be /sig, and just one subpage), then following the instructions [[Help:Signature]] to "include" the subpage in your signature field. | |||
However, some rules must be followed when doing so: | |||
#Your signature must include your username, or a shortened or altered version of it, or a nickname, as long as it is still instantly recognizable as pertaining to you. | |||
#Your signature must link to your userpage. It can also have links to your talk page, contributions, etc., but '''never''' to other users' pages. You may have a maximum of '''five''' word links, internal or external, including the mandatory user page link. | |||
#Your signature must be visible on your [[Special:Mypage/sig|signature subpage]]. Posting signature coding directly onto a page is not allowed, unless your signature is a single, basic link (i.e. <nowiki>[[User:Myname|Myname]]</nowiki>). Raw coding that ''is'' added to talk pages will be stripped down to a basic link, or removed completely and replaced with the basic {{tem|User}} signature in the form of <nowiki>{{User|Myname}}</nowiki>). <span style="color:red">'''Additionally, simply transcluding the content of your signature page by typing <nowiki>{{User:Username/sig}}</nowiki> is also not allowed as it only inputs the signature and not a proper timestamp.'''</span> | |||
#You may only have one signature page. You may use signatures other than the one on your signature page, but they cannot be custom sigs (i.e. only <span style="color:red">'''basic ones such as'''</span> <nowiki>{{User|Myname}}, [[User:Myname|Myname]]</nowiki>, etc.) <span style="color:red">and must also include a timestamp, which can be done by typing <nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki> after the basic coding</span>. <span style="color:green">'''removed this part as signing with very basic signatures would not give a timestamp, unless you were signing with five tildes <nowiki>(~~~~~)</nowiki> after the basic sig which produces only a timestamp.'''</span> | |||
#Some users also change their sigs during certain holidays. Though allowed, these sigs must also conform to all previous rules, and it is suggested to only do this a couple of times a year at most. | |||
#Your signature must fit inside this box: <div class="sigbox">''''''</div> <span style="color:red">'''(changed sigbox image to actual box as used in the template)'''</span>. It can only be single-lined and limited to around 30-40 characters, including any varying text. To test your signature's size, use the {{tem|sigbox}} template <s>(or see the [[MarioWiki:Personal Check/Signatures|personal check]])</s> <span style="color:red">'''this page seems outdated and {{tem|sigbox}} is a much more easier way to check signature size anyway'''</span> | |||
#One or two small images may be used, both limited to 35 pixels in height. One animated gif can be used instead of two static images, although it is strongly discouraged. The images must not interfere with line spacing or collide with either of the lines above and below it, and if they are found to be too distracting, you will be asked to remove it. If you add your own image, it counts as one of your [[MarioWiki:Personal images|personal images]] and should be tagged with {{tem|personal-image-sig}}. | |||
#Your signature can be one or more different [[Help:Color codes|colors]], provided they are readable. A background color must come with a defined text color (even if it is the default, black, users with different skins will also be able to see the text by defining this). Any such background must be confined to the immediate text area. Borders or blinking (or anything else that gives undue salience to a signature) are not allowed. | |||
