Every article on WikiIslam has a talk page, reached by clicking the "Talk" tab just above the title (for example, [[Talk:Dhul-Qarnayn and the Alexander Romance]]). There, editors can discuss improvements to the content of an article. If you ever make a change that gets reverted by another editor, discuss the change on the talk page! Through discussion on these pages, consensus can be reached. It is very important that you conduct yourself with civility and assume good faith on the part of others. | Every article on WikiIslam has a talk page, reached by clicking the "Talk" tab just above the title (for example, [[Talk:Dhul-Qarnayn and the Alexander Romance]]).

Most other [[Wikipedia:Namespace|types of pages]] on Wikipedia also have associated talk pages, including the [[Wikipedia:User pages|User page]] each editor is assigned once they sign up. When other editors need to contact you, they will usually do this by leaving a message on [[Special:MyTalk|your talk page]]. When someone has left you a message that way, you will see a notice the next time you log in or view a page on Wikipedia. | Most other [[Wikipedia:Namespace|types of pages]] on Wikipedia also have associated talk pages, including the [[Wikipedia:User pages|User page]] each editor is assigned once they sign up.
