    Write [[User_talk:Username]] on your user page. Replace "Username" with the persons' username.
    • You can also write the link that shows text, but leads to the talk page. Use [[User_talk:Username|text]] for this. Use a vertical bar (not a capital letter I or L) after the username, and replace the text with the text.
