Hey!
[edit]Hey! I had a quick question, I liked your old signature with the shadow! I was wondering if I could make it my own but copy the code? If so how did you do it? Valorrr (talk) 20:14, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Hey. The older version of my signature with the shadow can be found here. Enjoy! MediaKill13 (talk) 20:37, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Did you just create a user page for it? Valorrr (talk) 20:53, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, my signature is located on that subpage. It's basically what you need to do if you want a signature with long and elaborate formatting like that, since it may not fit in the signature box of your preferences. So you create a subpage, format it there and then substitute it onto your signature box and select the option to treat it as wiki-markup. In my case it's {{SUBST:User:MediaKill13/signature}}. So what happens is that when you sign a post the contents of that subpage are simply copied to wherever you insert your signature. MediaKill13 (talk) 21:32, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Hey! Thanks but I got it myself! :) Valorrr (lets chat) 21:34, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, great. Cheers! MediaKill13 (talk) 21:35, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks! and Cheers! :) Valorrr (lets chat) 21:36, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- Also! Are you interested in U.S. Congress? I am starting up WP:USC again. Valorrr (lets chat) 21:41, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
- No, I don't have an interest in US politics. Also generally I don't have as much time for Wikipedia as I used to; I have quite a backlog on the tasks I wanted to do. MediaKill13 (talk) 08:31, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It started today on Monday June 16 and will run until Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help make the content produced as diverse and broad as possible!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:56, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
