Forum:Post a comment feature

__NEWSECTIONLINK__

You might have noticed a feature on talk pages where the + leads to a page that helps you format a new comment. The + doesn't mean much, so we're going to change it to say "post a comment" to make it a bit more obvious.

We'll be taking the translation of MediaWiki:Postcomment on non-English wikis and putting it into MediaWiki:Addsection which used to be a +. If you want to use different working, you can customise MediaWiki:Addsection on your wiki.

We did think about making it say "leave a new message" but since it applies to article discussions, not just users, "post a comment" is probably best. You can also use this feature on non-talk pages by adding __NEWSECTIONLINK__ to a page. Angela (talk) 04:30, 23 September 2006 (UTC)


 * One problem that's been pointed out so far, is that this widens the tabs beyond the width of the main box for low resolutions. Has this affected anyone else? -- sannse (talk) 18:42, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
