No extension needed, just edit [[MediaWiki:Common.js]]. Example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js Add an onload handler that checkes if you're editing a talk page, then add a click handler on the save button. That handler then checks the edit box for "~~~" and throws a dialog like "No signature detected, save anyway?".
