 To access a talk page look for a link labelled ''Talk'', ''Discussion'' or ''Discuss this page''. These links will be found either at the top of the page or on the left hand side (near ''Edit this page'').
-A talk page adds ''Talk:'' to the beginning of the main page's title. If the main page has a prefix then talk is added after this prefix. For example, a talk page associated with the main article namespace simply has the prefix ''Talk:'', while a talk page associated with the user namespace has the prefix ''User talk:''. This article is in the ''Help:'' namespace, so the talk page for this article is [[Help talk:Talk Pages]]. The [[Main Page]] is in the main namespace (because it has no prefix), so its talk page is simply [[Talk:Main Page]].

 After someone else edits your user talk page, the alert "You have new messages" is automatically displayed on all pages you view, until you view your user page.
