Glue3D Wiki:Beginner's guide/Talk pages
Wikis are collaborative. Sometimes you need to ask a question, suggest a change, or discuss whether a page is accurate. That's what Talk pages are for.
Every article has a Talk page (click the discussion tab at the top).
The Purpose of Talk Pages
Talk pages are for discussing improvements to the article ΓÇô NOT for general chatting about the topic.
| Appropriate for Talk pages | Not appropriate |
|---|---|
| "I think the Features section missed the..." | "My mod is better than this one" |
| "Is this mod still maintained? The download link is broken." | "Does anyone use this mod anymore?" |
| "Should we merge this page with the Modding page?" | "This page already exists and should be deleted" |
Keep comments focused on making the wiki better.
Threading and Indentation (How to reply)
When you reply to someone, use colons to indent your response. This creates a visual thread so readers can follow the conversation.
Example conversation:
== Link not working == I think the link has expired. ~~~~ : Good catch. I'll test it and update. ~~~~ :: Confirmed broken. I already fixed it. ~~~~
That renders as:
Link not working
I think the download link is outdated. Deniskincses (talk) 22:51, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
- Good catch. I'll test it and update. Deniskincses (talk) 22:51, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
- Confirmed broken. I already fixed it. Deniskincses (talk) 22:51, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
First comment: no colons
First reply: one colon :
Second reply (reply to the reply): two colons ::
And so on, and so forth: :::, ::::
Start a new topic by clicking the "+" tab next to the Edit button, or by typing == Topic Title == at the bottom of the page.
Signing Posts
Always sign your comments on Talk pages. Otherwise, nobody knows who said what.
Type four tildes at the end of your comment: ~~~~
When you save, it automatically turns into:
