A personal sandbox
You might want to think about creating your own personal sandbox. This allows you to work on an article before you actually publish it to the encyclopedia and keeps it separate from your actual user page. A personal sandbox lets you get your article into good shape before publishing, without the pressure of other editors tagging it or making changes, and it allows you to ask for 'second opinions' from others before you publish. Another bonus is that it preserves your work in case the actual article gets deleted, unlike the general Sandbox which is emptied every 12 hours.

To start your personal sandbox page add this: User:Precinctwebgeoff/Sandbox to your user page. Save the page, then click on the link and start editing. It's also a good idea to place this banner userpage on both your user page and your sandbox page. For example, here's my sandbox: User:Voceditenore/Sandbox. You might also want to add this banner: User Sandbox to your sandbox page. You can create additional user sub-pages if you want the drafts for different articles kept separate. Here's an example of a sub-page for a draft I'm working on: User:Voceditenore/SlyDraft. All the best, Voceditenore (talk) 16:11, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
