General Overview

Talk pages are a special type of namespace pages, used to discuss changes on the corresponding "main" article or page. All WikiCPA articles, personal user pages, templates, etc. have an associated talk page (linked as "discuss this page" in the bottom of every page).

  • Article talk pages are used to discuss changes to the particular article.
  • User talk pages are used to leave messages for particular users.


Basic rules for all talk pages

  • Sign your comments - You can use three or four tildes (like this ~~~ and ~~~~), which are automatically converted to your username or IP.
  • Use coherent formatting.
    • Copy formatting from others.
    • Indent with colons (:), not with tabs.
    • Break up very large paragraphs.
  • Be civil at all times.
    • Don't make personal attacks
    • Don't SHOUT
