To make this thread on-topic, I wonder if there would
be any advantage is
allowing comments, separate from Talk Page comments, on our articles?
I notice that many casual readers will leave "comments" which you can
generally spot as they are not-tagged-with-a-sig and generally left at the top
of the Talk page without regard for headers and so on.
I just wonder if a more free-form "comment" section would encourage more
casual readers to become casual writers.
Yes. Wikinews does this - they have a "collaboration" page for editors
working on the article, but a "comment" page specifically for readers
to spout forth. Would be good.
