Hi! I'm wondering if after I make an edit or addition to a Wikipedia page I need to sign my name. I know I need to add the four Ieesharoberts (talk) 02:59, 7 February 2019 (UTC) in talk pages, but not sure about other contexts. Thank you![reply]

Good question. You shouldn't sign edits to articles, because nobody owns the content of an article. We only use it in places (like Talk pages, and some pages under the Wikipedia: namespace) where we are specifically making comments as ourselves, not creating something collectively.
