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 user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.
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
~~~~

Contested deletion
[edit]This page is not unambiguously promotional, because I am a newbie, I don't know how to edit it correctly. I just want to express that I like gift cards and want to share knowledge about gift cards. Why can others express their personal opinions but I can't? --Twocard88 (talk) 09:45, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- Nobody on Wikipedia is supposed to express their personal opinions in an article. You have written your user page as though it was an article, instead of a user page, including external links that could be regarded as promotional. See WP:UP#NOT for further guidance on how not to do it. Deb (talk) 12:13, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
