User:SineBot

SineBot is a bot that is designed to replace HagermanBot, which added {{}} and {{}} tags to unsigned edits made to talk pages as well as a handful of non-talk pages. The bot derives its name from a happy coincidence: "signing" on involves typing four tildes in a row (~~~~). Each tilde resembles the graphical representation of a sine function, and, of course, the very word "sine" is a homophone of "sign." Moreover, the word "sine" means "without" in the Latin language.

To explicitly disable autosigning on a single specific edit, place !nosign! or !nosine! anywhere in the edit summary.

Entire pages can be excluded using {{}} allow/deny tags. This is useful if you don't want the bot signing comments to your talk page. However, be sure to establish consensus on article talk pages before denying the bot from signing comments made to them.

Do note that even when {{}} is used to prevent SineBot operating on your user talk page, the bot will still issue reminders when it signs posts on your behalf at other pages (as signing your posts is required by the guideline, and the bot should not be used as an alternative to properly signing posts yourself).

Editors with over 800 edits are ignored by the bot by default, with the assumption that they should already know the signatures guideline by that point and that if they didn't sign, it was either intentional or the result of doing something complex (e.g. refactoring discussions). Many experienced users, however, would like the bot to continue to look after their edits in case they forget to sign.

Therefore, for experienced editors wishing to re-enable autosigning of unsigned comments, you can add {{}} to your User: or User talk: page and wait a few minutes for it to take effect. See the for more info.

Note that if you frequently forget to sign or stop signing altogether, the bot will continue to pester you with {{}} warnings—even if you attempt to use a {{}} or {{}} tag to deny it access to your User talk: page. This is intended behavior to prevent abuse of the bot.

To see SineBot in action, try leaving an unsigned comment in its sandbox just as you would leave a comment anywhere else.
