Talk page usage suggestions[edit]

Hi Kastelz; Cuddlyable3 is correct. Talk pages are for discussing improvements to articles. Some of your recent posts seem to more directed toward discussing the topic itself.[1] If you are looking for a discussion forum, you should look elsewhere. If you want to improve the article, just go ahead and do so. Your suggestion about "church" seems reasonable and need not be discussed unless someone objects. Please see WP:TALK for more guidance on the use of talk pages. Please don't bother to post on old discussions, e.g., from 2007. No one is likely to read your comments or respond.

Thanks Walter, I am a bit of a Noob with this ! I will try not to use it as a soap box, although honestly I see long running debates with people pushing POV all the time. Still learning Kastelz (talk) 06:58, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Some articles seem to attract some who edit and argue tendentiously, but that doesn't mean that they should. You are doing fine. If anyone is too harsh, just remind them of WP:BITE. Best wishes, Walter Siegmund (talk) 17:08, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
