[edit] Read Me First

Before you post something to this page you need to know that I don't read it. If I posted a comment on your talk page or an article discussion page then please respond there. I add talk pages that I comment on to my watchlist for 15 days. If you want to chat with me then please email me instead. We can archive the conversation later if we feel that it needs to be on Wikipedia.

[edit] Why I Don't Read This Page

I find user talk pages to lack the maturity and flexibility of other communication mediums, most notably email. It's difficult to quote and respond on Wikipedia and it's difficult to keep the thread of a conversation together. Conversations require the user to do what the computer should be taking care of.

[edit] Style Sheets

On my user page I show how to use style sheets to remove both the links that lead to your talk page and the "new messages" notice.
