Recognize signature with tildes and remove it?
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

For a number of reasons, some users (likely occasional ones) keep adding the 4 tildes signature at the bottom of their messages, which I believe leads to the entire line being automatically nowiki'd because they're doing so in VE-mode.
I think seeing all those tildes is potentially confusing to readers. Would it make sense to recognize such signatures and remove them on save instead?

I think removing the signature would be perceived as a bug. A warning would be better: T112239: Warn people who left ~~~~ on a Flow message

Declining after the triage meeting: it will be more clear for users to have T112239: Warn people who left ~~~~ on a Flow message
