Sometimes Thelemapedians need to have a conversation, and there are two general ways to do it.

Discussion pages

Discussion pages are a key feature of Thelemapedia, offering the ability to discuss articles and other issues with other Thelemapedians.

If you want to ask a question about an article, or you have a concern or comment, you can put a note in the article's discussion page. You do that by clicking the "discussion" link at the top of the page. Don't worry if the link shows up in red; it's ok to create the talk page if it doesn't already exist.

When you post a new comment (i.e. a new "section"), put it at the top of the talk page. The exception is that if you're responding to someone else's remarks, put your comment below theirs. Be sure to indent your reply by typing a colon (:) at the beginning of a line.

You should sign your comments by typing ~~~ for just your username, or ~~~~ for your username and a time signature. When you save the page, your signature will be inserted automatically. Most of us use time signatures because it makes following discussions much easier.

Experiment

Experiment! This time, instead of editing the Temp Zone itself, leave a message on the discussion page by clicking "discussion". Remember to sign your user name. You might want to try responding to someone else's post. Remember, you should use "Show preview" to see if your formatting works before you save.

Forum on the Lounge

We now have our own discussion space on the Scarlet Woman Lodge forum, "The Lounge." You do not need to have an account there to join in, but you are welcome to sign up with one. Although the main topic is Thelemapedia, of course, you are free to start up any conversation you like. This is a place for community. You are welcome to visit the Lounge (http://www.scarletwoman.org/lounge/index.php?showforum=35) any time.

And now, to wrap it up...
