To do so simply add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your comments; you can also use the 3rd button on the left of the edit bar to automatically place it in the location of your cursor. Your user name (or IP address, if you are editing anonymously) and the date will be automatically added along with a timestamp. Signing your comments helps people to find out who said something and provides them with a link to your user/talk page (for further discussion). For further info see the talk page guidelines. Thank you.
