And last time I checked, current talk pages would be lost if we didn't copy them ourselves. This could be devastating.

That is not that answer I got yesterday when I asked JAlbor if talk pages would be safe after the move to Message Wall.

He said, and to quote his exact words: "To answer your first question, the talk page will be archived automatically. It would be editable only by admins, so that should keep the history in tact without worrying about people messing with it."

So, from August to now, something changed regarding talk page to message wall archiving.
