Here's how to create a signature:

1. Create a page for your signature here.

2. Edit the page and insert this text:

[[User:Username|Username]]

, replacing "Username" with your username. Like That

[[User:Username|Yourusername]]

Once you are at your preferences page, change the text in the "Signature" box to this:

{{SUBST:nosubst|User:Username/sig}}

See {{nosubst}} for more information.

Make sure the "" option is checked, then save your preferences and empty your cache.

Now that your signature is set up, know how to work it:
