Template:Talkback/doc

Purpose
Many users state that when they get a message, they will respond on your talk page instead of on their own. This makes reading back a conversation quite cumbersome; having to switch talk pages back and forth in order to make sense of the conversation. To this end, you can use this template to notify a user that you have responded to his/her message on your own talk page.

Usage
Place the following code on the talk page of the user you have answered to. The recipient may remove this template from his/her talk page at any time. A link to edit the first section of the talk page is shown within the template. The  parameter is optional; when you enter the name of the section on your talk page, it will directly link to that section.

To have the links point to a non-user talk page, you must include the full talk page link.

To include a timestamp, add  (five tildes).

For user talk pages, you can also use the mytalk template that will automatically add your username:
