Use this template to sign somebody's talk post for them. This is most often needed with anonymous editors, who almost never sign. The template accepts two arguments: a required username (or IP address) and an optional timestamp, which can be copied/pasted from the edit history of the talk page. The following two examples...

{{unsigned|ItsWalky}} {{unsigned|ItsWalky|2007-02-19T16:09:55}}

...will render this way:

—The preceding unsigned comment was added by ItsWalky (talkcontribs). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ItsWalky (talkcontribs) 2007-02-19T16:09:55.

The timestamp of course will be rendered in whatever timezone you have set your preferences to show you, so you might want to label it. Or not. Whatever.
