Narrative:
Installed an MEL on #2 and #11 spoilers because of history of spoiler light message per xx-yyb (B757 flight spoilers). Didn't install MEL xx-ww for automatic speed brakes system per MEL xx-yyb. I simply missed the step for the placarding of the automatic speed brake system and didn't review MEL and may have been complacent due to installing many placards.
