⚠️ This task is an experiment. I anticipate it will evolve with time. Let's see what happens.
Talk pages are one component of a larger system of on-wiki communication.
This task is intended to make the research associated with understanding that system more legible to others.
The ultimate goal of this research is to arrive at new understandings that will help our team make decisions around things as specific as requirements for the first version of the reply affordance and how the impact of this feature should be measured. See this epic: T233443

- What needs to be true for these use cases to happen? (components)
- What decreases the likelihood of these use cases happening? (pain points)
- What are the points of delight in these use cases that could be accentuated? (delight)
