Every page on wiki has a talk page associated with it: articles user pages sandbox pages

Editing with sandbox pages: For revising an existing article, consider drafting the first significant edits (e.g., a new or heavily revised section) in a sandbox. This is more effective than fully rewriting an existing article in a sandbox, then replacing the article all at once, which may antagonize other editors.

If you use a sandbox, you should place a notice on the talk page of the article with a link to the sandbox. This allows interested editors to post suggestions to the talk page before work starts. Once you are happy with the draft you can place another notice on the talk page of the article with a link to the sandbox, asking for comments before editing the article itself.

The "Did you know" process

Getting your new article to appear on the Main Page of Wikipedia as a "Did you know" entry is a great first goal, as soon as you move out of a sandbox. To be eligible, an article must: conform to Wikipedia's core policies regarding verifiability, neutral point of view, and copyright; have been created (or expanded five-fold) within the last five days; be about 3 or 4 paragraphs long, at the least; be supported with citations to reliable sources.
