Subject: Re: [Wikipedia-l] Losing the 'talk' discussion on a page....
The person who moves the page can specify whether the talk page moves with it, so either
it moves with the actual page, or stays behind with the old title. In any case it
isn't deleted.

Is this a bug or is it a feature?
Just wanted to know what happens to the 'talk'
section of a Wikipedia
entry once (or if) a page gets shifted.
I noticed that the earlier discussions (that might
have come up via
the
Talk) just disappears.
Now, this isn't very helpful. Because all the
earlier talk seems to be
untraceable, and there is a complete vacuum about what
was said earlier.
If anyone wishes, this system can be abused (for
instance, to cover
earlier discussions... by simply changing the title of
the page).
Am I missing something here?
