I've just added my "keep" to the discussion. The following is OT, but I'm curious:
Does anyone else find the fact that the Wikipedia talk pages are wiki pages to be about the stupidest thing ever? Wikis are designed for occasional edits, not active discussions. It's very annoying to try to save a comment and find that it is rejected because someone else got an edit in while you were editing.
It seems clear to me that the talk pages should use an HN or Reddit like system, not wiki pages. Or am I missing something?
