Drafting
Many users create "sandboxes" when drafting new articles. For example, User talk:Gjamal/sandbox. If you click on that link you'll get a blank page that you can use. If the article has categories please don't link them until the article is posted in the main space, otherwise your sandbox will appear oin the category listings. Let me know if you have any other questions. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 18:30, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

TN-1 Visa Application Mistakes to Avoid
That's a nice piece of writing, and I'm sure there are many people who would find it useful. However it's not appropriat content for Wikipedia. Wikipedia articles should describe a topic, not provide advice or tell readers how to do something. A good listing of the things that Wikipedia is not is at What Wikipedia is not. The most relevant section is WP:NOT. As that section mentions, there are sister projects with different missions, including one for how-to guides. One of those would be a better place for the article than here. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 05:17, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
