Talk pages

When you reply to a talk page comment, please be sure to indent it with an :.

Like this!

And then this, and so on.

It keeps it all nicely formatted and easy to read. Thanks! --ZestyCactus 19:13, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Replying to old discussions

Keep an eye on timestamps before replying to an old discussion... if it's over 6 months old, then please don't reply to it. ▫▫ティナ^♫★ 19:47, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Second warning. It's right here. "While old comments are archived, replies for comments over 6 months old will be removed." If you continue to ignore these warnings, you may get a block. ▫▫ティナ^♫★ 22:40, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

This is your third and final warning, you have been told many times to stop replying to old discussions, as per the Talk page policy. Please stop replying to 6 month old comments on talk pages. You will get reverted and warned. —♥ Jello 03:31, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Ok,the last one i did was 5 months old. I know that you are not supposed to answer 6 months old posts, but this is an accuracy issue. If you don't want us to do that, put the questions that are older in a frozen status... don't just attack me for trying to be accurate. Thank you for your time. Pokemon26 14:16, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I don't think it's possible to put a freeze on old talk page discussions without protecting the entire page (which we shouldn't do, because that would prevent new discussions from starting). Just try to keep an eye on the time stamps. When replying to an older topic, it's generally best not to unless you have a very closely related question or you've uncovered some fabulous piece of new information relating to the original discussion (like I did on Talk:Satoshi Tajiri#Aspergers when I discovered in a book that he does indeed have Aspergers syndrome). If nothing else, few people are checking for new replies on a talk discussion they started several months ago. --ZestyCactus 14:45, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
