Hi there.

Firstly, there are two kinds of talk pages.

The first kind is a User Talk page, which is primarily used for one user to send a message to another. You will find this by going to your Toa Page or by hovering over your name in the top right corner and clicking My Talk. If I wanted to get in contact with you over an issue with a page, a suggestion, a nice message or something, I would go to your talk page to post it. The process is very similar to posting on somebody's wall on Facebook in that your message is public and can be edited/deleted after posting. However, if you wanted to respond to my message, you would go to my User Talk page, not continue on your User Talk page. Every time your User Talk page is edited, you will get a little notification saying You have new messages.

The other type of talk page is the talk page of an article. Every article has the option to create a talk page, which is the place for underhand comments on the page itself. This is a more formal environment where users are expected to make comments about the materiality of the page's content, discussing aspects that can be improved, expressing a need for help with coding, and expressing your overall thoughts on the page. If it is a character page, please be advised that comments solely on the creation do not belong here and are usually frowned upon. This is a common misconception that some people have.
