All LiquidThreads carefully redirect to Flow topics, e.g. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Current_issues/Adding_a_dev_namespace_for_%22Data_and_developer_hub%22_articles .

We can have a conversation about the future of talk pages on mediawiki.org , where you can propose unfreezing LQT. I guess https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Current_issues is the place for it, or a Phab task. I'm going to talk to Danny Horn first. FWIW I far prefer Flow for feature discussions. 2. IMO, Flow fully achieved two points on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow?oldid=1870919 [1]; and it's more efficient for me. The recent DWIM ("Do what I mean") improvements while you're writing a post are a delight.
