[edit] Your signature

Can you please type four tildes like this ~~~~ at the end of your posts on discussion pages, or else use the signature button which appears in the list of tools just above the edit box while you're typing your post (tenth button from the left)? They convert automatically into your username, with a link to your user page, plus the date and time of the post. Three tildes would just give your linked username, while five would just give the date and time. At the moment, it seems as if you're typing Bill Ward manually, with no link (and in any case, your user name is W.E.Ward.III, not Bill Ward), and then typing five tildes to give the date and time. Your posts on talk pages should all link to your user page, so that people can get easily to your talk page if they want to leave a message for you. Thanks. ElinorD (talk) 16:33, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi ElinorD. That would be an incorrect thought; I'm typing four tildes and getting Bill Ward. Just like this Bill Ward 17:53, 21 July 2007 (UTC) However, I had RAW Signature checked; I'll uncheck that, and it should work. I was curious as to why it wasn't putting a hyperlink to my signature.
