When a project has more than one page associated with its key functions, such as a project or operations page, an archive, templates, etc., it is generally best to redirect the discussion pages for all those pages to the main discussion page for the project. That way, participants remain aware of what is going on with the project without having to search out every nook and cranny where discussions may be taking place. The exception to this strategy is when a task is delegated that would generate a great deal of discussion, and centralizing it with the project's other discussions would create a discussion page of unmanageable size. For an example of this overall strategy, see the discussion pages of the tip of the day project:
- Template talk page: Template talk:Tip of the day
- Project and instructions page: Wikipedia talk:Tip of the day
- Userbox template talk page: Template talk:User tipster
Note that there is no page called "WikiProject" because that term is generally reserved for projects that develop and maintain the subject-matter of the encyclopedia itself. Tips of the day are instructions on how to use Wikipedia. Therefore, the talk page for the main operations page is used as the project page and its forum.
