This is resolved by typing out your signature (typically ~~~~) as the first parameter. The second difference is the order of the parameters: whereas user warning templates are in order of use, block templates are not. This is because some of the parameters are less optional than in user warning templates, and they happen to be at the end.
This is because Wiki markup (and HTML markup) are now escaped as HTML entities when placed in the default Signature field, e.g. [ instead of [. If you would like a signature that requires markup within the Signature field, please check the "Treat the above as wiki markup" option and enter the full signature string into the field.
The purpose of this WikiProject is to standardise and improve user warning templates, and make them conform to technical guidelines. User talk templates are placed on users' talk pages to advise a user against actions that disrupt Wikipedia, to advise editors of common mistakes, or to place a standard boilerplate note at the top of a page.
Note that changing your signature will not change signatures that have already been produced, only ones that are created after save has been clicked. Also note that the basics to changing the background of signatures is included on the Wikipedia:Signatures page (though more in-depth instructions are soon to follow)

On user talk pages that are getting multiple warnings, it is best to keep things organized by using section headers. Type "==Warnings==" and "===December 2024===" above the first warning, adding a new header for each month. Old sections should be removed on anonymous user talk pages after a few months.
Signature templates are a small but unnecessary drain on the servers. Transcluded signatures require extra processing—whenever you change your signature source, all talk pages you have posted on must be re-cached. User mention notifications will not work if the mentioning user's signature is contained in a template.
This is your only warning; if you insert a spam link to Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted , preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.
