Frequently asked questions

 * How do I archive a talk page?
 * Talkpages will archive themselves. Threads are displayed in reverse chronological order by last post (though you can choose to leave a thread where it is when you post to it). A certain number of most recently changed threads are displayed per page (by default this is 20), and there are Next/Previous links to go from one to the other.


 * How do I mark a thread as resolved?
 * You can summarise a thread at any point in time, by clicking the "Summarize" link to the right of its title.


 * How can I re-arrange posts in a thread or on a page?
 * Each post or thread has an option under the "More" menu called "Drag to a new location". You can select this option and drag the post (and all of its replies) to a new location, including underneath another post, a new thread, a different position on the page, or anywhere else.


 * How can I move a thread from one page to another?
 * There's a link in the top-right of each thread that reads "Move". If you click on it, you can move the thread to another page.


 * How can I change the title of a thread?
 * There's a "Change Subject" link to the right of the title. Alternatively, you can click "Edit" on the top post in a thread, and edit the subject field.


 * My signature is wrong!
 * You can change your signature by clicking "Edit" in the "More" menu for the post. The signature will be displayed below the textbox, along with an edit link.


 * How do I watch a thread for changes?
 * There is a "Watch" link to the right of the title. Clicking on this link will cause any replies to that thread to be sent to your "New Messages" screen, which you can access from your personal toolbox.


 * If the threads re-order themselves, how do I check if somebody's replied to my post?
 * You will automatically watch any threads that you contribute to. Any replies to these threads will be sent to your "New Messages" screen, which you can access from your personal toolbox.


 * How do I get clean up vandalistic or unwanted posts?
 * You can edit anybody's post, by clicking on "Edit" under the "More" menu. If you remove all of the content from a post, and it has no replies with content, then it will not be displayed. It will still be visible in the history of the page. If you want to remove a post permanently, and you are an administrator, you can click the "Delete" link under "More".
