Hi. What sort of problem are you running into when you try to create a new sandbox? When you go to User:Eloisecschrier/newsandbox what do you see? You should see a tab that says "Create" in the top right. Are you not seeing that? Or does the problem come up when you try to save the page? Or is it something else?

Hi! I wanted to give you some feedback about this article.


 * Firstly, the section on the exhibitions needs to be re-worked. The table is just a bit too unwieldy and would likely pose an issue for people coming in on handheld devices or on less than stable internet connections. The general standard for lists of exhibitions is to just list the most major and notable exhibitions - these are typically the ones that have received coverage in independent and reliable sources or where they're exhibiting at a notable museum or institution (ie, look to see if they have articles)


 * Avoid linking to outside places within the article - this is typically discouraged since in most cases the link doesn't really bring anything to the article, can make it seem promotional, or it's something that would be best in the external links section. For example, I looked at the sources and it looks like the majority of them go to a single page about Ractliffe and as such, could just be made into a single link in the external links section.


 * Make sure that you are only summarizing what is already stated in the source material. For example, avoid using terms like important or other words that you should watch out for since they can come across as a personal interpretation or statement. We can state that X or Y person said that something was important, but we can't say it ourselves. Any time words like that are used, they must be attributed. Also, only use quotes when absolutely necessary, when you cannot summarize the material in your own words and summarizing it would lose something in the process.

I hope this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:59, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

This is exactly what not to do. Can you tell me if you were instructed to do this by any one, or a tutorial page? Thanks. Johnbod (talk) 02:02, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with...

Hello! I believe I just posted a new article about Claudette Schreuders, but I am worried that I posted it under the previous page I wrote about Jo Ratcliffe. I was wondering if you can help me make sure I posted it properly and independently? Thanks.

 * There were some strange page moves, but now the article on Schreuders is at Claudette Schreuders while that on Ractliffe (not "Ratcliffe") is at Jo Ractliffe. So that seems to be in order. Huon (talk) 01:13, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.
