Please sign and indent your talk page comments

edit

1. Signing using 4 ~ one after another will insert your user name + date/time. Place this at the end of the comment.

2. Indenting: Use : (in the source code editor, in the visual should be ever easier) to indent. Use one more than the preceding comment.

Thanks!Icewhiz (talk) 10:16, 6 June 2017 (UTC) The words "irrational or unreasonable" need to go before the word fear in the definition of Islamophobia to make Wikipedia consistent with its own definition of Islamophobia as found on the wiki page: Islamophobia in the media [1]Reply

Proper use of talk pages

edit

Hi!

First off - you are doing a better job at indenting and signing. Thanks!

In Talk:Islamophobia you are erasing whole blocks of your previous comments and/or altering them. This is not how it is done. Typically (unless immediately after - for minor grammar checks, etc.) - one leaves one's previous (and others) comments as is - advancing new comments below.

In short - advance new arguments beneath the older back and forth. In general - unless you notice a mistake (e.g. spelling or formatting) just after you put something in (or want to make a minor expansion just afterwards) - you don't change your own comments from the past. Definitely not after someone responded to them. You also don't touch other people's comments.Icewhiz (talk) 18:57, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

My apologies i put your comments back in.

No worries. I see you are trying to be constructive. Just offering feedback on technical details / protocol.Icewhiz (talk) 21:16, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:For Britain are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

  Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:For Britain for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information.

The article you cited is an opinion piece which doesn't mention For Britain. That talk page is not the place to share broad opinions on the nature of the political spectrum, it is for discussing how to improve the For Britain article. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 06:07, 14 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
