Purpose
Many users state that when they get a message, they will respond on your talk page instead of on their own. This makes reading back a conversation quite cumbersome; having to switch talk pages back and forth in order to make sense of the conversation. To this end, you can use this template to notify a user that you have responded to his/her message on your own talk page.
Usage
First message
Originally, this template was meant to be placed on top of the recipient user talk page. Currently, however this template is placed under a new section at the bottom of the recipient user talk page. To use this template to inform your intended Wikipedian of a message your talk page:
- Go to target talk page. User talk pages start with "User talk:" prefix.
- On the top of the page, click on "New Section" button/link. It should like this:
- In the "Subject/headline" box, type "Re: [Section title]", where "[Section title]" is the name of the section in your talk page in which you have posted a reply.
- In the message section, enter one of the following:
Simple form: This is the simplest way to use this template:
Replace "Your username" with your username without "User:" prefix.
More accurate form: This form has an additional parameter but takes the reader right to the section in which the discussion is in progress.
Replace "[Section title]" with the name of the name of the section in your talk page in which you have posted a reply.
Recommended form: This form is complete and recommended. It adds a timestamps:
Instead of five tildes (~~~~~), you enter any date and time.
- Save the page.
Wikipedia will notify the recipient of having a new message in his talk page. When he visits his user talk page, he may see your notice and may come to your user talk page.
Example
For example, this code:
== Re: Testing on Wikipedia == {{Talkback | Sandbox | Testing on Wikipedia | ts = ~~~~~}}
Generates:
Re: Testing on Wikipediaनमस्कार, सन्देश जी। आपके लिए Sandbox के वार्ता पृष्ठ पर एक सन्देश है।
आप इस सूचना को किसी भी समय मिटा सकते है, इसके लिए वार्ता संपादन में जाकर साँचा:tl मिटाएँ।
Shortcut
Instead of using साँचा:tld, you can use साँचा:tlxs. It automatically inserts your username. The syntax is similar to साँचा:tld except you omit the username parameter, as shown below:
Second message
So, what if you had another reply for the same user in the same topic? In case you think that the recipient have not visited your user talk page since you inserted the साँचा:tld notice, simply do nothing. On the other hand, if the discussion continued and you think the recipient must once again read what you have posted, you can simply do one of the following:
- Do nothing! Most of the times, Wikipedians keep their correspondents' user talk pages in their watchlists and will find out if another reply is posted.
- Update the ts parameter. Simply edit the recipients user talk page and replace the time and date in front of ts parameter with a new time and date (or with ~~~~~. This will notify the users.
- Add another साँचा:tld in the same section under the first one. The recipient user might find this obtrusive.
Pointing to other talk pages
To have the links point to a non-user talk page, you must include the full talk page link.
Notes
- Do not substitute this template!
- Do not insert this template in a section header; use it on a line by itself
Redirects
Announcing your conversation policy
If you are going to use this template, please consider putting the साँचा:tlx on the top of your own talk page. It generates: साँचा:mbox
You may also use साँचा:tlx, which tells your visitors not to use साँचा:tld. It generates: साँचा:mbox
You might however, like to make a custom message using साँचा:tl or साँचा:tl.
