Help:Talk page

For more detail see the Wikipedia page.

Talk pages (also known as discussion pages) are administration pages where editors can discuss improvements to articles or other Wikipedia pages. The talk page associated with an article is named "Talk:Example", where "Example" is the name of the article. For example, the talk page for discussion of improvements to the article Emulators on Windows is named Talk:Emulators on Windows.

When viewing an article (or any other non-talk page) on the desktop Wikipedia, a link to the corresponding talk page appears on the "Talk" tab at the top of the page. Click this tab to switch to the talk page. On the mobile Wikipedia, type "Talk:" and the article's name in the search bar. (There are plans to provide easier talk access on mobile.)

User pages also have associated talk pages (for example, User talk:SonofUgly for SonofUgly's userpage.). When other editors need to contact you, they will usually do this by leaving a message on your talk page. When someone has left you a message that way, you will either see an information notice the next time you log in or view a page on the Wiki if you are editing as an IP address, or a if you are logged in.

When using a talk pages use Signatures to identify to the reader(s) who is speaking to them.
