Talk:Contributing

Two questions now
Originally I only had one question - which I'll get to in due course, I guess - but after clicking Discussion|View_History I have another one, viz: How on earth did deleting the old talk page (by way of housekeeping, apparently) improve Meta? How can I now tell whether or not my question has already been addressed? Isn't that precisely one of the main reasons why talk pages are so useful? -J CptRabid (talk) 09:36, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
