Proper signature use

Hello Uw-articlesig, welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions (all visible here). This is a common mistake for beginners, and it has since (most likely) been corrected. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should only (and always) use your signature after contributing to talkpages, the Village Pump, or other discussion pages. (For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these, see What is an article?) Thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience!
