About page signatures[edit | edit source]
The extension BlueSpiceSignHere allows you to quickly sign off a wiki article. It enhances and automatizes built-in MediaWiki functions that allow users to leave their signature on the page.
Inserting "sign here"[edit | edit source]
While in edit mode, add (usually on the bottom), the following tag in source edit mode.
<bs:signhere/>
Signatures will appear in chronological order of signing.
Restrictions[edit | edit source]
Question of forgery is very important on this subject. Every user's signature will be added to the page in plain text, as it would be when using the built-in MediaWiki signature function. While it may not be obvious to users reading the page, all users able to edit the page, would be able to change, add or remove signatures. As a safe-guard against such actions, page history log can be user. There, any change to signatures will be visible, along the the user who made the change.
