Hi Amussman25,
Please take a moment to read the guidelines, maybe specifically those on video games too. While your help is very welcome, most of your edits have been reverted. Adding links to fictional planets in the lead of a video game article doesn't help, see WP:SEAOFBLUE. That Dead Space is backwards compatible is not relevant for the lead. Often video games are re-released or are made available on digital distribution channels, that is not important enough for the lead, see WP:MOSLEAD. I hope this helps. Thanks, and happy editing. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 09:17, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with your custom signature

[edit]

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 preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:
  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
  3. Remove anything in the Signature: text box. (It might already be empty.)
  4. 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:
  1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
  2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
  3. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you. 18:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
