User blog comment:Dopp/Communicate Easily with Message Wall/@comment-1091639-20110926205042

I guess I'm in the minority when I say I'm looking forward to this feature. If properly implemented, this will allow easier communication between editors and users, who often feel discouraged by wikicode. I've been looking for ways to gather feedback on the wikis I edit easier - this should do the job. I have a couple of concerns though:

1. Will the new "comments" allow all wikicode? Sometimes when brainstorming ideas with other contributors, creating complicated examples is required, which is best done in the place where the discussion is held. Also - viewing the source of a message with an example is often needed. Will this be possible?

2. Will the "conversations" be created on separate pages similarly like the current comments? With comments enabled, there' too many separate comment subpages which are a real pain when performing regular maintenance.

3. What about talk page discussions which are already archived on subpages? Will there be any way to merge current and archived talk pages once the feature is enabled?
