Talk pages are necessary to talk about the content we put into articles. Will we be able to use the same features and syntax in Flow as we can use in Wikitext? Some examples that just come to my mind:
- Basic syntax for text formatting, font size, font face, lists.
- Wikilinks (including interwikilinks to all WMF projects).
- Including images and tables using the same code as in Wikitext, appearing the same as in Wikitext
- Including templates and using custom tags like
<code>
,<source>
Right now were able to include everything we could put into an article on talk pages. This is absolutely necessary to efficiently produce content for Wikimedia projects. We can't discuss content without visualizing it on talk pages and highlighting the necessary Wikitext.
