Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.
The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error and incorrect links.
The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.
- Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
- Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
- Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
- Remove anything in the Signature: text box.
- Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "Restore all default settings" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)
- Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:
- Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
- Change the signature as shown below, or make other edits to make the signature appear how you want it to appear.
- Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.
Current signature:
[[User:SpinkZeroZero|<b><span style="color:red">Mr. Spink]]</span></b> <sup><sup>[[User_talk:SpinkZeroZero|<span style="color:lightblue">talk]]★[[Special:Contributions/SpinkZeroZero|<span style="color:lightblue">contribs]]</span></span></sup></sup>
Fixed signature:
[[User:Mr. Spink|<b><span style="color:red">Mr. Spink</span></b>]] <sup><sup>[[User_talk:Mr. Spink|<span style="color:lightblue">talk</span>]]★[[Special:Contributions/Mr. Spink|<span style="color:lightblue">contribs</span>]]</sup></sup>
