User blog comment:Poseidon133/Why do some wikis have talk pages?/@comment-26479628-20150415115500

Talk pages still give off that nostalgic feel of earlier Wikia, while message walls are dubbed by some to be the new wave of change.

Honestly, message walls supercede talk pages in most ways. Though, I myself do prefer to use talk pages, just for the novelty of it. ;)
