::::::::::You can edit your own talk page comment if a link you posted gets their destination changed. That should be fine. You can edit someone else's comment for that same reason, if their link no longer links to its intended target (so not if they made a mistake and linked to an incorrect article). There are most likely nothing linking to the decade old section.

::::::::::That was my way of saying your third comment was really just a long winded way of simply saying "the link on my subpage's talk page is now incorrect". You could've just said that and I would've told you that you are allowed to change the link.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#00A1E9">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#59C2F1">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#BF004F">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D5598C">ire</span>]] 07:02, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

:::::::::::Sorry, but that's not what written policy says, it's contradicting it (on my reading): ''Please do not edit another user's discussion—even if it's full of spelling errors'', and I see no exception for link changes. (Also, if a topic is split among different sections but was one section when being linked to by a commenter, only that commenter will know which of the split parts best represents the "intended" target. I or anyone else can only make a guess.)
:::::::::::It actually wasn't, I already said that in my first comment (although apparently not clear enough for you to understand). My third comment clarified that I believe this was a bad decision that shouldn't have been made, and that it defies my will (me being the original author of my comment), and asked you to reconsider (and/or actually answer).
