All articles on Wikipedia have a talk page to facilitate discussions for improving the article, and to resolve disputes related to the article without edit warring. In addition to these purposes, talk pages usually have several templates added to the top of the page that serve one of three functions: displaying the banner(s) of the WikiProject(s) which have classified the article to be within their scope, informing our visitors and new editors of the policies and guidelines to be observed on both the article and the talk page, and lastly templates which display specialized information unique to the article.
In the case of the first two types of templates you will find these on most article talk pages. The third type is rarer, as they pertain only to articles that have met certain qualifications or received certain honors. Below is a summary of the talk page templates, their code, and when they should be employed.
Note that the following is not an extensive or exhaustive list of talk page templates, as this page is merely meant to introduce you to the most common types of talk page templates you may encounter, and give you a brief description of their purpose here on Wikipedia.
