When you are on an article page the sticky header has an icon-link that takes you to the talk page. This task is regarding the sticky header on talk pages. We should:

Since the same icon appears in content namespaces as well (i.e. a talk page icon—which is not a self-link there), I consider this a bug, not a feature with questionable impact. Either it should be removed, or it should be symmetrical to the content-namespace version, and link from the talk page to the content page.
Having a self link in the sticky header is not useful at all, and it would be nice if it could link to the content-namespace version instead (with a different icon to distinguish both) as @Tacsipacsi suggested.
@ppelberg - discussed with Alex today. We think the next step would be to add a link to the article, for which we already have an icon. @alexhollender_WMF to add a mock. Does that sound good from your side?
@ovasileva + @alexhollender_WMF: adding a link to the article page within the sticky header that appears on talk pages sounds great to me. Nice!
Hey @cjming just realized we need a feature flag for showing the sticky header on the talk page which might be a blocker for doing this task. We should not be turning on the sticky header on talk pages as part of this task. @ovasileva will create those tickets shortly.
