I'm here to address the rule, described as: "ARTICLE COMMENTS ARE ONLY TO DISCUSS HOW TO IMPROVE THE ARTICLE. Please direct other comments to the Discussions Page,". I do wholeheartedly agree with the notion of splitting the page discussion from general discussion on the topic presented in the article. But it's supposed to be the other way around — talk page for "editors" and comments for "visitors". The talk page is pretty much just a flip side of an ordinary wiki page with its layout and markup, which users without practice of wiki editing are, frankly, afraid of even touching, while those who do — usually make a mess of it accidentally. On the other side, the comments page is very user friendly, save for carrying over the EOL thing, handles thread nesting for the user as any other website and generally invites discussion from the usual everyday readonly visitor. Furthermore, this saves you the headache of (accidental or deliberate) talk page vandalism, since users cannot edit other users' neatly compartmentalized comments.

With how it is set up at the moment, you **** against the wind. It's just not intuitive nor natural. I'm proposing the way this issue has organized itself on all the other wikias organically without explicit rules.
