Since you're the one who goes through these the most, I figured it'd be best to speak to you regarding these. What would you say if we disabled article comments and opted for article talk pages instead? The point of this would be to reduce the amount of speculation and banter in the articles themselves and use said talk pages to discuss the improvement of the related articles. On doing this, I'd also suggest we encourage users to use the forums for chatter/speculation/discussion regarding the plot and not the articles' talk pages. All the current chatter would of course, continue over on the forums. This would reduce the amount of comments with little to no value on the articles themselves (such as "lol"), and encourage productivity. Thoughts? I'd love the input of all the current admins on this.

Side note: This is just a suggestion, not a formal decision or anything. If the other admins agree on this, we could put it to a community vote.
