Wikidialog gadget
I've ported the dialog tools here from Wikinews. You can experiment with them by selecting the wikidialog gadget in your user preferences; it's the first gadget at the top of the list (deliberately: it's built to work no matter what else doesn't, since it's expected to be effectively part of the core wiki interface). The basic explanation of the tools is at Help:Dialog; repository for stuff built from them at WB:Assistant (nearly empty atm); my plan to take over the world is described in this essay.

Feedback invited. If there are no objections, I'm hoping to switch the wikidialog gadget to opt-out (so it's available to everyone, even IPs) in a few days, leaving time for a bit of testing and second-thoughts (though it's all designed to be quite simple, so hopefully anything that went wrong would be glaringly obvious). --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 03:18, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for this. Note that I slightly changed your link. —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:23, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Have switched to opt-out; should now be live for everyone including IPs. [ diff]. --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 21:29, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
