If you want to edit a more obscure article and feel confident, just [[Wikipedia:Be bold|be bold]] and do so. However, if you'd like to discuss a potential change first to get a second opinion or seek help, you can start a discussion on the talk page and then share a notice about it on a more popular page.
To do this, first check out any associated WikiProjects listed at the top of the article's talk page. If they seem active, post an invitation to their talk page to join the discussion. You can use {{tlxs|Please see|Talk:''Page name''#''Section name''}} to do this or just write it out, but do not start the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#multi|same discussion in multiple places]]. If none of the projects seem active or no one replies, you can also ask for help at [[Wikipedia:Teahouse|the Teahouse]].
Talk pages are used for many different types of discussions, including proposed [[Wikipedia:Merging|mergers]], [[Wikipedia:Splitting|splits]], and [[Help:How to move a page|moves]] (title changes). Some discussions are held at [[Wikipedia:Dashboard|noticeboards]], such as the [[Wikipedia:Village pump|village pumps]] or [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for deletion]] (AfD).
