Wikipedia talk:About the sandbox

message: If given permission by a person, are you allowed to edit that person's sandbox? I am helping somebody who is making a football season article in their sandbox and I think it would make it a lot easier.Crystalpalace6810 (talk) 18:38, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Sure, as long as, if/when the text is re-added to the article, it is properly attributed, either by using the page move function or otherwise (see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia). Graham87 03:23, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Editing other people's sandboxes 

message: Why exactly is "Draft:Sandbox" in draftspace? It just leads to confusion as it makes people think "oh this is the place for me to write my draft" and hten when they go back to work on it more, they find that either the sandbox has been cleared or someone else has added junk to it (yes, junk, as that is what's usually added to the sandbox page). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 12:57, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: As it says on the see also link, it was created for testing with VisualEditor. I don't know if that reasoning applies as much now though. Graham87 14:42, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

message: Please implement the starter code I put in Module:Sandbox/sandbox. I believe having some starter code would be really helpful for new users who need to get started with testing.

thread_title:  Template-protected edit request on 21 March 2023 

message: Especially in the 2022 Vector skin, the sandbox header is far too big. Barely four lines of text can be visible upon loading the page, compared with 15 lines of boilerplate. Is it any wonder that new users will want to remove the header? This issue of having to scroll the page up and down to save text and see what you have written makes editing Wikipedia seem much more difficult than it needs to be.

thread_title:  What do I do in a sandbox  

message: Am I allowed to create my own custom wikipedia pages in the sandbox? for custom countries and such, not offensive or promotive in any way. RazorPantherz (talk) 00:07, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Custom Countries 

message: Shouldn't there be multiple sandboxes? like in the Spanish Wikipedia, there are 10 sandboxes and there is a button that indicates if its occupied or not. It would be useful so that editors do no need to wait that another editor finishes their tests.  17:15, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
