I was going to redirect this to Signature block, but I don't think this is the only or predominant meaning of "signature tag", which appears in many different contexts (biology, defense, computer science, design, graffiti) in the academic literature. Few of those uses seem common enough that it would make sense to create a DAB page, and I think a redirect here is unlikely to be useful for someone attempting to find one of the other meanings. On the merits of the current article's focus, the subject of an email or forum signature tag doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG, and would be better covered in Signature block.
