Hi, Ciz,

The best thing you can do to import pages from another MediaWiki wiki
is to use Special:Export on the source wiki (unmark the checkbox
"Include only the current revision, not the full history") and
Special:Import (only avaliable to sysops) on the target one.

If you try to import images in that way, it only imports the page
history, but not the file history. You must reupload manually the
images on the wiki, except if you have acces to the server's
filesystem (which isn't the case for Wikia)

---------

About the signature, SmartSig
<http://www.wikia.com/wiki/User:Leon2323/smartsig> is what you are
looking for.

Cheers.
