Here are some ideas I'd like to contribute to this article:

== Talk page format ==

I would like this page to have a good example of a talk page. I've created [[:Template:TalkPageIntro]] and put that at the top of this page, and I put the old contents utoday's ISO date as the caption. I also put the date in using the same format. I'd also like to have a page at [[Help:Talk]] about how we format talk pages, but we should talk about that elsewhere. Oh, and I created [[:Template:ConvStart]], which I used (via "subst") to create the headers for each of the talk page sections. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 01:20, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 
== Merging with Help:Contents ==
:''Conversation started: 01:33, 5 June 2020 (UTC)''
 
I think I'm going to start the merge of [[Help:Contents]] and [[electowiki:Help]] pretty soon. Maybe in the next 24 hours, but probably not. I think the final home is going to be over at [[Help:Contents]], but I'm not sure. I may just bust up [[electowiki:Help]]. I feel like I'm talking to myself on this talk page, so I'll leave it at that. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 01:33, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
* '''Support''' either. I'd say I might mildly prefer using the often under-utilized '''Help:''' namespace, with [[Help]] <strike>remaining</strike> created as a cross-namespace redirect. If it remains in the '''Electowiki:''' namespace, I'd still recommend a cross-namespace redirect from mainspace as it's more intuitive for users to search without the namespace prefix. I stumbled upon this wiki while finally getting a chance to check out your personal website. I think I've seen your name around on English Wikipedia, but not sure as we've interacted specifically there. Thought I'd better reply to this, so you don't feel like you're talking to yourself. I appreciate that you initiated a merge discussion on a new wiki. [[meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 16:58, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
