@ Teh, I beg to disagree, people were using talkspaces whenever they were enabled.

I also very much disagree with the idea that if you want to discuss a page, you /must/ go onto IRC or a mod's talk page. Mods are not people who edit the wiki, Mods are people who perform antivandalism work. Nothing else.

I also do not see the downsides of alienating the portion of the wiki's community and receiving backlash from people who do not edit the wiki. They are a dead weight and non-factor to article standard, as far as I'm concerned. People who post constructive comments are the type of people who would suggest the same things via Talkspaces. If a large portion of commenters were actually active editors, I would not mind their use of comments (because it would be more likely that they'll discuss the article), but it seems like the comments feature has failed to convert the readers they have brought in into editors.
