Don't use that! It'll dump five lines of code into the page, and annoy everyone, and you won't be able to alter it easily. Add "<noinclude></noinclude>" around the content in your user page, then add "<includeonly>{{User:Samurai/sig}}</noinclude>" to the bottom of the page, then add "{{User:Samurai}}" in the "nickname" field in Special:Preferences and tick the "Raw signatures" box, and when you type "~~~~" the resulting code will be "{{User:Samurai/sig}}".

Hm, that's an interesting way to do it. Might be simpler to just use {{User:Samurai/sig0}} --  Nx/talk  07:59, 7 March 2009 (EST)
I find this way tidier, but I only came up with it after using the sig0 trick myself. Word stupid Hoover! 08:01, 7 March 2009 (EST)
Indeed it is, since you only leave {{Username}}, but if you accidentally screw up the noinclude tags while editing your userpage... --  Nx/talk  08:06, 7 March 2009 (EST)
Actually, the method described above would leave "{{User:Username/sig}}", and if you screw up the noinclude tags you can clean it up fairly quickly. Word stupid Hoover! 08:11, 7 March 2009 (EST)
