Inkipedia talk:Policy/Talk pages

Not sure if the Mainspace articles' talk pages section is too restrictive -- "such and such weapon is too powerful" will often lead to tips on how to beat it or opinions on the reverse and enlightening the other editor why the game is actually balanced (or not). Completely off-topic discussion ("my cat's breath smells like cat food") I agree should be left out. 18:14, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The thing is, though, that I don't see how it contributes to the content of the article, which is the main purpose of talk pages. 23:02, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * It doesn't per se, but the discussion from it can lead into tips into beating the weapon which can be incorporated into the article. 23:29, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Perhaps we could expand it to allow discussion on the subject that will indirectly influence the article? 00:23, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Not sure how that would be enforced as anything could influence the article indirectly, so long as another editor was conscientious enough to get the discussion back on track. Perhaps a blanket "discussion related to the article" would be enough?

 * I'm hesitant to do that, as that's also too broad IMO. Maybe we should word it as "analysis of the subject that can be used in the article"? 15:55, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I can get behind that :)  16:17, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

 * "analysis of the subject that can be used in the article" seems like good wording to me; lenient enough to allow useful discussion without driving talk pages off-topic. ~Super Hamster  Talk 02:53, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Could really use some input on these... 21:16, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
