User talk:Jerzy/J's Talk-subpage Experiment

''If you add to this discussion, most other participant(s) won't be nearly as quickly aware of that as they would if you had also edited their respective talk page(s). (A link to the corresponding section of each is at their corresponding "*" below, and your updating the edit count and editing-time-stamp range there also gives that participant further information. But no one other than i has done so yet.) For my own notification, i've started a list that i can check via "Related changes" more often than i am willing to check my Watchlist or "My contributions", tho of course that is still less often than "You have a new message".''

At 18:57, May 10, 2005 (UTC) on User talk:Jerzy/My signature, a colleague who was already mad at me about something else said in part:
 * 2 msgs, 18:57, 10 thru 03:28, 13 May 2005
 * 18:57, 10 May 2005
 * 00:37, 12 & 03:28, 13 May 2005 J
 * 2 participants: Jerzy~t~*.
 * general topic(s): Critiquing of Jerzy's new personal scheme for talk.
 * It's not my fault if your ridiculous talk page setup doesn't trigger the new messages....

This approach to Wiki-talk is an experiment; i've so far imposed upon a number of colleagues with it, who have responded thru it (even without this 'graph) well enough that i can describe it as "working" (though an otherwise angry one nevertheless described it as "ridiculous"). My hope is that it will slow the growth of my talk page, make my archiving simpler and more timely, and thus make leaving talk for me less burdensome (especially for slow-pipe colleagues) than it has been for too many months.

I suggest you use a simpler format for inviting someone, as I could barely understand what you wanted. A simple
 * ''Please join me in a discussion at subpage name

would suffice. Isomorphic 20:29, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
