As you suspected, [https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php?title=Dwarf_Fortress_Wiki_talk%3AVersions&type=revision&diff=292148&oldid=292138 this edit] is not very good form. Talk pages are like a forum; if there's a misunderstanding, clarify it and move on. There's no need to clean up past discussions and deleting other people's comments is generally frowned upon. See [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines here] for general talk page ettiquette. The comment you replaced the discussion with is also a bit unclear now; if you think there's an issue with the version template, it's better to demonstrate how to reproduce the bug so that someone can try to fix it. —[[User:OddballJoe|OddballJoe]] ([[User talk:OddballJoe|talk]]) 19:03, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

:Gotcha. Now you mention it, I shouldn't have needed to be told not to delete someone else's comment. I was really just thinking about how much needless clutter I'd added to the discussion. Thanks for the clarification. [[User:Alpacalypse|Alpacalypse]] ([[User talk:Alpacalypse|talk]]) 19:12, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Don't delete talk page discussions, please

As you suspected, this edit is not very good form. Talk pages are like a forum; if there's a misunderstanding, clarify it and move on. There's no need to clean up past discussions and deleting other people's comments is generally frowned upon. See here for general talk page ettiquette. The comment you replaced the discussion with is also a bit unclear now; if you think there's an issue with the version template, it's better to demonstrate how to reproduce the bug so that someone can try to fix it. —OddballJoe (talk) 19:03, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Gotcha. Now you mention it, I shouldn't have needed to be told not to delete someone else's comment. I was really just thinking about how much needless clutter I'd added to the discussion. Thanks for the clarification. Alpacalypse (talk) 19:12, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
