Comments are a way to leave a quick message with your thoughts on a blog post or article page.
Fandom provides two separate commenting systems: article comments and blog comments. Although both systems are powered by Discussions, they function independently and are associated with different types of content on the wiki:
Article comments appear below article content and are used to discuss the article itself.
Article comments are enabled by default, but can be disabled by the community's administrators via Admin Dashboard's Wiki features.
If article comments are not available for a page, users can participate in the conversation using its talk page instead, which is located in the "Edit" dropdown.
Blog comments appear below blog posts and are intended for more casual conversations and community discussions.
Blog comments are an integral part of the blog system — they can only be disabled by disabling blogs entirely via Admin Dashboard's Wiki features.
Since April 2022, only logged in users that are both "emailconfirmed" and "autoconfirmed" are allowed to comment as a measure to reduce spam and vandalism in comments. As of June 2025, only logged-in users can view comments.
To leave a comment on an article or a blog post follow the instructions below.
On desktop
If you're on desktop:
Scroll down to the area just below the page content.
Click in the "Add a comment about <page title>" box.
Fill in the input box where it says "Share your thoughts...". You can use the toolbar in the text box to format your text or add links.
When adding a link, the full URL is required. For example, "https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Community_Central", not "Community Central".
To add an image, you must select one from your computer.
If you would like to reply to a comment:
Simply click in the "Write a reply" box, and follow step 3 from the above list.(Your reply will show below the comment.)
On mobile
If you're visiting pages on a mobile device:
Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page
Tap the link labeled "VIEW FULL SITE" to reload the same page with the desktop layout
Once the page is reloaded, you can comment as if you were on desktop (see instructions above).
To know more about switching between the site views, see: Mobile web § FAQ.
Disabling or re-enabling Article comments
The Commenting checkbox
Community's administrators can disable or re-enable comments for a certain article by editing it then clicking the "Commenting" checkbox, available under the editor window.
They can also disable or re-enable comments for every article by using the given feature from the Admin Dashboard.
After disabling Article Comments, neither the comment field nor any comments will be displayed under any article, even if the article had comments before. However, disabling Article Comments will not delete any already existing comments, and therefore will be visible again once Article Comments are re-enabled.
