Template:TalkPageIntro is a template to insert at the top of a talk page.

User:RobLa puts this on the top of some talk pages when he sees that folks aren't following the norms for how MediaWiki talk pages work on places with lots of expert MediaWiki users (e.g. like English Wikipedia). Visit mw:Help:Talk pages to see the official documentation for MediaWiki talk pages, or see Help:Talk pages to learn more about how they work here on Electowiki.
