RuneScape:Don't delete discussions

Discussion pages are an integral part of a wiki; they are a place for users to decide which direction an article to go in, what to include and not to include, and to place any other kinds of comments. User talk pages are also important, being a place where users can communicate about a wide variety of things, as well as recieving warnings from other users regarding unhelpful edits, and messages from admins about blocks.

These comments may end up outdated and seem useless; however, there are many reasons to keep them.

So why keep discussions?
There may seem to be no purpose, but keeping discussions can be very useful. For example:
 * Keeping old discussions may prevent the same debate from happening repeatedly. For example, if two different sources provide differing information, leaving the discussion may prevent it being brought up repeatedly.
