This page lays out the "ownership" of various pages on the SteamFront wiki. It is useful for solving edit conflicts.

[edit] User: and User talk: pages

[edit] User Pages

It should be noted that User: pages are the sole property of that particular user and may not be edited by others (so, User:Jorm is the sole property of jorm). Further, Users may request the speedy deletion of their User pages, or any subpages therein.

[edit] User Talk: Pages

User Talk: pages are primarily the sole property of their particular user as well (so, User talk:Jorm is the sole property of jorm). Comments made by others on User Talk: pages may be removed by the page owner. It is considered good form to archive a talk page (created by appending "/Archive" to a user talk page, such as User talk:Jorm/Archive) instead of simply blanking the page. Not all users will follow this convention, however.

While removing of comments is allowed, modifying others' comments (impersonating) is not, and is considered vandalism.
