I do not understand at all how signatures on Wikipedia work. FatBaker (talk) 22:06, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia! You seem to have done a signature correctly there, but to recap, on talk pages (but not in articles) you should end each comment with a group of four "tilde" characters ~~~~, which the system turns into a "signature" of your username and the time and date. You can do more complicated things, explained at WP:Signature, but that is all you really need to know. There is a quick guide to "Wiki markup" at WP:Cheat sheet, and more detail at Help:Wiki markup. Here are some more links you may find useful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Regards, JohnCD (talk) 22:28, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
