What is your intention for the future of your sandbox page? Do you intend to submit it to be posted as an article, or do you intend to keep it as a page in your user space? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:54, 28 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Once I have a substantial amount of history and all the episodes summarized, I will submit it for review. If there's a problem, and it has to do with some of the episodes summaries, then I could fix it to be more appropriate, but that is what they talk about in the episode. --Vincentius1 (talk) 16:33, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks for answering. The reason I asked was that I thought it only fair to warn you that on the one hand if you didn't intended to submit the page as an article then it was liable to deletion as use of Wikipedia as a web host, and on the other hand if you did intend to submit it as an article then it is very unlikely indeed that it will be accepted. I strongly recommend looking at Wikipedia's notability guidelines before you do any more editing. It would be rare that a podcast made by a group of friends using Newgrounds and YouTube would satisfy those guidelines, but rather than make an assumption about that I searched online for information about the SleepyCabin Podcast. Nothing I found was the kind of substantial coverage in independent reliable sources that is needed to establish notability by Wikipedia standards.
 * My advice to new editors is that it is best to start by making small improvements to existing articles, rather than creating new articles. That way any mistakes you make will be small ones, and you won't have the discouraging experience of repeatedly seeing hours of work deleted. Gradually, you will get to learn how Wikipedia works, and after a while you will know enough about what is acceptable to be able to write whole new articles without fear that they will be deleted. Over the years I have found that editors who start by making small changes to existing articles and work up from there have a far better chance of having a successful time here than those who jump right into creating new articles from the start.

 * After I posted the message above I looked at your user page, and saw that you have "made minor and anonymous edits on Wikipedia", and obviously without knowing what those edits were, or how many of them there have been, I can't tell how much experience you have, so the advice I gave you to start by making small improvements to existing articles may or may not be less relevant than I thought. However, I leave it there for you to consider. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:58, 29 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the response, I'll do that whenever I can. But if it's any consolidation, the people involved in Sleepycast are all well-known internet animators. Chris' animations have over a million views, with the most viewed being 44 Million views. Same with Zach's, whose animations are mostly over a million. Stamper is known for working with the Behemoth, most known for being the narrator for Battleblock Theater, Jeff and Cory also work for the Behemoth, and are currently working on their next title, Nightmare Cops. And Mick is a voice actor for several games, animations, and notable internet projects. As for sources, I plan to use the actual podcast as reference, as they do bring up their background, as well as, the history surrounding the SleepyCabin brand. If I need to include a specific time-stamp, then I will do that. If not, then my last resort could be posts made by the hosts and tweets. For the time being, I will keep it up and add a background section for the members. But if it's not gonna work, then I could just take it down and stick to small edits. But again, thank you for the response. Vincentius1 (talk) 17:06, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
