Forum:What is the talk namespace for blog posts?

Does anyone know? When I click on the talk link (I use nonobook), it redirects to the blog post itself. http://images.wikia.com/central/images/a/ac/Lachlan5963.png   16:16, December 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * The talk namespace for blog posts is User blog comment (see Help:Namespace). It's used by the blog comments feature.


 * User blog comment:Semanticdrifter/Understanding Fair Use (not a proper link to a comment, so it redirects to the blog post)
 * Blog comment permalink: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog_comment:Semanticdrifter/Understanding_Fair_Use/@comment-TK-999-20121203153519?permalink=462521#comm-462521
 * Blog comment shorthand link: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Semanticdrifter/Understanding_Fair_Use#comm-462521
 * To create those blog comment links, scroll down to the blog comments and find the part that says "3 hours ago by TK-999". Right-click on the "3 hours ago" part and choose Copy link address option.


 * Ah I see - I was a bit confused, as I tried to move a blog that was mistakenly put in article namespace, and the talk page wouldn't move. I'l just keep the talk as an orphaned talk then. Thanks! http://images.wikia.com/central/images/a/ac/Lachlan5963.png   20:31, December 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't think I would personally leave it in ns:1. Orphaning it in simple "Talk" Land wouldn't be something I'd be comfortable with.  There's nothing wrong with it, exactly — I just think the integrity of the most-used namespaces should be preserved to the extent possible.


 * So I've got two alternatives for you.


 * You could throw it in the almost-never-used "Blog talk" or     .  Sure, technically 503 isn't the talk space for 500.  But who cares, really?  You're talking about one orphaned talk page.  It'd be better to have a blog talk page somewhere in Blog Land, and manually link it to the relevant user blog page. The one downside is that the page would automatically start with a redlink that could never be resolved.  Imagine that the name of the blog were "My blog post". You move the talk page to 503, and what you'd get is a link at the top pointing back to Blog:My blog post (or 502:My blog post).  But this would be a redlink, because you moved it to User blog:My blog post (or 500:My blog post).  So it's not an exact fit, but it's a genuine talk page in Blog Land with links to the right user blog page.


 * Or you could just delete the page outright and move its contents to a user blog comment under the thread you've just moved. 21:05: Mon 03 Dec 2012
