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 the tag[edit | edit source]
- There is bs:signhere tag
- When this tag is added to a page, a field to add a signature appears
- When clicked, this field will generate a signature above itself
Will be shown in view mode of an Article. Everyone with edit right will be able to sign.
Sorting[edit | edit source]
Signatures appear in the order they were added.
Scaling[edit | edit source]
All signatures will always be shown.
While in edit mode, add (usually on the bottom), the following tag in source edit mode.
<bs:signhere />
Alternatively, you can insert the tag in visual editing mode with VisualEditor. Select Insert > Magic Word and select signhere:
Once the page is saved, every user who visits the page sees the field for Signatures.
By clicking on this field, the user's signature is automatically inserted. The signature shows the username as defined in the user's preferences as well as the timestamp of the signing. Signatures appear in chronological order of signing.
Restrictions[edit | edit source]
Question of forgery was discussed. Reason is that signatures will be added as text, and therefore could be edited by other users. This is not obvious at first glance (while reading). However, every change will be visible in the log. So it can be known for sure, if the signatures have been changed after the fact.

Every user's signature is 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 with edit rights can add or remove signatures. As a safe-guard against such actions, the page history log shows when signatures were added.
