[edit] Signing articles

Hi again, Olivia (if you are the same person as I spoke to before) I removed your signature from the malaria page, I don't know if you intended to add it or not. One of the rules here is that we have no ownership of the articles we write, I can't claim public authorship of things like metabolism or DNA as other people contributed as well and other people will contribute in the future. Anyway, welcome again! TimVickers 23:41, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

I notice you blanked this user page, do you not want to keep it? I can delete this account for you if you wish. TimVickers 23:43, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tim, thanks. I thought you had to add a signature? Or is that just when you 'talk'?? Thanks for sorting it out anyway...i'm new to this game. Omls2 11:36, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

You sign your posts on talk pages, as these are your personal contributions and shouldn't be changed from anybody else. Articles, on the other hand, are open to edit, so can't have any single authors. TimVickers 15:43, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
