The '''[[Wikipedia:Sandbox|Wikipedia Sandbox]]''' is a [[Wikipedia:Project namespace|Wikipedia namespace]] page designed for testing and experimentation with [[Wikipedia:How to edit a page|wiki syntax]]. Sandboxes in other languages can be found in a list on the lower left of the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|English Wikipedia Sandbox]], and the [[Wikipedia:Meta|Meta-Wiki]] has a sandbox at [[m:Meta:Sandbox|Meta:Sandbox]]. There is also a sandbox at [[Wikipedia talk:Sandbox]] for testing talk page techniques, and a range of template sandboxes from {{tl|X1}} to {{tl|X9}} for testing Template-space techniques. |
|||
However, while using sandboxes in other languages may be useful on certain occasions, it is important to keep in mind that, unless [[Wikipedia:Interlanguage links|interwiki links]] are used, each Sandbox can only access the links, images, and templates on the Wikipedia it is located on. |
|||
The Sandbox was created as a place with fewer rules and policies than other pages on Wikipedia. For example, you don't have to follow the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] or reach community [[wikipedia:consensus|consensus]] before making a major change. However, it must not be used for malicious purposes, and policies such as [[Wikipedia:no personal attacks|no personal attacks]] and [[Wikipedia:civility|civility]] still apply. |
|||
If you have a [[wikipedia:username|username]], you can create your own sandbox in your [[Wikipedia:userpage|userspace]]. For example, if your username was "[[User:Angela|Angela]]," your sandbox could be at "[[User:Angela/Sandbox]]." You can find your user sandbox [[Special:Mypage/Sandbox|here]]. (And if it doesn't exist yet, feel free to create it!) |
