Talking to other users

If you wish to leave a message for another user on the Cumulus Wiki use the 'talk' option. First click on the Users name to show their Page and then their 'talk' or 'discussion' tab. (Typically you see user names in the History tab of a page). Either Edit the page or Create a new one if no one has talked to the user before. After typing your message it is good etiquette to mark your message with the date, time and your username (so that they can respond). To quickly do this, end your message with four tilde symbols (~~~~)


Once you save the page, the user will receive an email message to say their talk page has been updated. In addition a banner will be displayed at the top of the page when they login.
