I know this.  But neither of "talk" or "discussion" refers to the
actual purpose of the page.  It rather refers how the page is
functioning.  Like calling it "Cellular phone" rather than "Mobile
phone", because naming it after the technology it uses is far more
descriptive than its benefits for users?  Classic English.  It's a
dust sucker, not a vacuum cleaner.
