It's within the pencil menu.

What pencil menu? I don't see anything of the sort. I want to post a question to the Last Christmas (TV story) article and there is no link to any talk page to be found. I have clicked on everything.

There is no link to the page history either. This new design sucks.

In the column of round things going down the left side of the page, the pencil menu is the second from top. You have to hover over that round thing, wait for the menu to pop up to the right of it, then click on what you want from that.

After using it this way for a while I feel it's pretty, but not great for functionality. And while grouping the navigation and editing tools together with the social-networking guff can't be a good idea for anyone, if we must do it this way why do Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and Google Plus all get their own knobs? Collapsing them into one collective social-network round thing would be slightly less out-of-place than keeping only three functional knobs with all their useful things collapsed into fiddly submenus while keeping root-level single-click knobs for each individual social-network flavor out on display.
