I really thought I was, but I’m not. We’ll learn together then. —While False (museum | talk | contributions | logs | rights | printable version | page information | what links there | related changes | Google search | current time: 21:09) 22:32, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Just letting you know you don't need to quadruple-tilda your user page. 87.bus.rider (talk) 13:32, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Maybe by explicitly changing your .sig format (which, as a logged-in user, you can do, and probably have, and logged-in .sigs have other differences ), you have overridden the default behaviour. But, just for everyone's benefit, the fall-back bebaviour is;
...the triple-tilde normally gives just the 'user' signature, thus: 172.70.85.156
The quintuple gives just timestamp: 15:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
You could 3+5 it, of course, to give both: 172.70.85.156 15:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
...or, if you wish, switch them round with 5+3 and both in reverse: 15:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC) 172.70.85.156
But the quadruple version gives user+timestamp, easily giving both of the xetails that are useful to provide in Talk-type comments, as I now sign off (properly, without code-tagging) thusly... 172.70.85.156 15:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
