*Each individual discussion should start with a <code><nowiki>== level 2 header ==</nowiki></code>; whenever a new subject is brought up, a new section should be started (unless it is a direct continuation of an existing topic). Using the "new section" tab to make an edit will do this automatically - note that this is not possible if the page does not yet exist, so it must be added manually. Please make an attempt to make section headers on talk pages distinct and on-topic; generic or non-specific headers such as "Yo" or "Hey" are strongly discouraged.

*When replying directly to a specific comment, indent your comment appropriately by placing colons (:) at the beginning of the comment. For how many colons to use, use one colon more than the comment you're replying to did. This allows talk pages to flow more smoothly and be easier to follow, as well as letting others know who you are replying to. If the indentation starts becoming too much, reset the indent with the [[Template:Reset indent|reset indent template]].
