Growth: signature should not be at its own line according to cswiki policies
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hey all,

all Growth-team made products, which adds discussion posts, currently add a signature as its own line. At cswiki, a signature is usually added right after the last sentence.

Can this be changed, please? Also, @revi, can you comment what's common on kowiki?

Thanks,
Martin

@MMiller_WMF when you're back, please weigh in on this. Thanks!

For Korean Wikipedia either own line or just after the last paragraph is both fine. If you just want to follow cswiki rules on kowiki, that's fine from kowiki perspective.

@Urbanecm -- that would be fine with me. Could you tell us exactly how to format it? Should it contain two dashes (--) or something, like the following:

@Urbanecm -- sounds good. I see that you already have a patch for this. We should make sure this patch applies to the help panel, homepage help module, and homepage mentorship module. I'm moving this to Code Review.

@MMiller_WMF - moved to PM Review for information only.
Checked in betalabs (from Homepage Mentor and Help modules and from Help panel) - a signature is correctly placed:
