Forum:Eliminating the Forum Talk namespace permanently

As you may all recall, Forum does not have an associated talk namespace, Forum talk, currently. However, Forum talk remains enabled, albeit secretly (a filter having been put on it for 7 years already banning page creation there). As such, I am implementing this proposal: merge all content in the Forum talk: namespace into its associated forum page, and subsequently huff the hell outta that namespace.

Since 2006.

Forum talk has always been unnecessary, but I've always found it an untapped source of potential shitposting and Easter eggs. Of course, now we can't even edit that space any more due to the spam filters. Sure, there's efficiency, but must it come at the cost of frivolity? -- Kip the Egg Talk Works 15:13, May. 15, 2021

I think eliminating forum talk is a good idea. I'm not sure if merging any existing forum talks into their respective forums is necessary tho. MrX blow me 20:23, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

Other than BENSON IS HERE, I'd say there's no real point. Just merge everything. PF4Eva, the President of Imagination Vote for me My tax returns 22:24, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

You sho about that? That's a lot of content to be deleted and lost to history, and merging sounds like it would just make the existing forums more cluttered. No matter what we decided on this issue, we already have Forum talk space locked through spam filter, so it's a moo point. -- Kip the Egg Talk Works 00:17, May. 16, 2021
