== Discussing ==
 
Discussing a topic is as easy as creating one. Every page on Swyde has an associated '''Talk page'''. MediaWiki engine provides this namespace for combining the topic and its discussions together. Click on the '''Discuss this page''' button at the bottom of a page to get to the associated talk page. To discuss a new topic simply append the talk page with a level 2 heading and a description, followed by your signature using four tildes(<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). To reply to anyone, indent your response with a : sign (: indents once. :: indents twice and so on). Here is how a discussion would look like in a wikitext and when it renders as you click '''Save page'''.
