[edit] What may talk pages be used for?

Talkpages are not for general chatter, please keep discussions on talk pages on the topic of how to improve the associated articles.

[edit] User talk pages

[edit] Can I do whatever I want to my own user talk page?

Most editors treat their user talk pages like regular talk pages, and archive the discussion periodically to a personal subpage if the page gets large.

Do not attempt to violate any Wikimedia Foundation policies (e.g privacy policy) and use your personal talkpage as a personal blog (or) web-host such attempts will automatically be dealt with via "Office actions" regardless whether or not it's been discuss by the local community.

Your personal talk-page is primarily used for direct communication between editors, you may decorate your userpage or talk-page as you see fit but be aware that talk-pages are for communication between editors, and off-topic discussions should be kept to a minimum.

[edit] Disputes?

If you are having a disagreement or a problem with someone's behavior, please read w:Wikipedia:Resolving disputes.

[edit] Office actions

The Wikimedia Foundation has direct authority over the wikiversity project, and may deal with office actions if any situation threatens the entire project (e.g. disputes, attacks, &c.). The Foundation reserves the right to remove content and deal with necessary issues appropriately at an oversight level.
