To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

315 million?
[edit]You've been editing some articles to replace c. 300,000 years for the origin of humanity to 315,000, with comments 315 million. I think the actual sourced answer is 300,000 +/- 50,000, so it's probably better to let it be. I tagged one of your edits as vandalism based on the edit summary, for which I apologize. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 21:12, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- My mistake. Your edits were good; you just need to work on your comments. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 21:30, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry, I just got my thousands and millions mixed up. Sorry. Redostone35 (talk)
Varieties of English
[edit]Please do not edit other people's comments on talk pages, unless you are removing a personal attack, as described at WP:TPO. Specifically, do not change the variety of English used by other editors in their comments. For the rules about when to change, and when not to change English varieties in articles, please see WP:ENGVAR. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:04, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
The Pancake House moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, The Pancake House, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, Redostone35!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! KylieTastic (talk) 15:39, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello, Redostone35. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, Draft:The Pancake House.
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it. — JJMC89 (T·C) 21:15, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

- Hi Redostone, we don't yet have an article about Battle for Dream Island so it's probably too early to write about elements of the show. The article also doesn't explain why it's notable. Just remember that we have to summarize what secondary sources (such as published books and newspapers) have said about a topic, and it doesn't seem reliable sources have discussed either Battle for Dream Island or Tiny Loser Chamber. – Thjarkur (talk) 18:46, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
