Tharring, using the sandbox is SO easy! The sandbox is where you may make test edits. That will be erased after a short while. That is a useful place for you to make test edits. Thanks!

Hi Tharring, and welcome to Wikipedia! Don't worry if you're having trouble getting your bearings: that's normal for everyone in the beginning, and it doesn't usually take too long to get oriented.

If you're being prompted to save, that probably refers to an article you're editing. If you're editing an article, there will be a button towards the bottom left of the screen that will be labelled "save page." If you click it, you are saving your changes, and publishing the new version of the article.

Hope that helps! If you have more questions, feel free to leave me a note at my talk page. Thanks!

The blue-linked footnotes are automatically generated by using this code in the article:


 * The sky is blue.

If you add your references using the same system, then all the existing footnotes should renumber to match - if you add it after #4, then your reference will become #5, the old #5 will become #6, and so on.

Cut and paste will work... if you want to experiment in a sandbox (yours, I presume). To edit an existing article --- you can just do it in place.

It is better to use the help link on the left of every page. In answer to the sandbox question; See About the Sandbox.
