Forum:Signatures without a name

One thing that is really popular here is that people like to add quotes or randomness to signatures. But does that affect the purpose of signatures in the first place? Yes, it does. Signatures are used to let someone know who started a discussion in a discussion.

Although a link destination information in the status bar can show a signature's user, some people don't have a status bar and they actually need to visit their page to know who posted it. Some users don't even add a link to their user page!

It already is a policy, and it is here. It doesn't say you can't have something other than "Talk" to the talk page, you can put the randomness and quotes in there. It is just adding your user name to your signature. PFMuffinStrike455 Talk 04:30, January 29, 2011 (UTC)
