Answer to your requests for information
I have read the messages you have posted relating to the sandbox page which you created, and I thought it might help you if I tried to clarify a few points for you. A Wikipedia sandbox is for testing and preparing edits for use in Wikipedia, it is not a free web space for storing content for other purposes, such as working on draft material for use on other web sites. I see that in the message you posted to you asked him how the content you posted came under the category of use of Wikipedia as "a blog, web hosting service, social networking service, or memorial site". The answer to that is that you were using the Wikipedia servers to hold content for purposes unrelated to Wikipedia, which means that you were using Wikipedia as a web hosting service.

I hope that has made the situation clearer to you, but please feel welcome to ask for further clarification if necessary. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 16:33, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
