Forum:Why have Talk pages?

As stated by JakePT in Talk:Collector Armor, "Talk Pages are for talking about the article itself. If you want to talk about what the article covers, take it to the forums or a blog post."

I still don't know what is distinguished between "Article Itself" and "Article Coverage". Either one encompasses the other, or JakePT means I should be Talking about the markup language that each article page is written with, or something more existential. predcon 17:02, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
