Rafale deal controversy/Sandbox


WP:Subpages are not allowed in mainspace. If workshopping needs to be done, it should be done in user space or on the article talk page. G M G talk  13:34, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi User:GreenMeansGo, Subpages says "Temporary subpages in Talk namespace, usually formatted Talk:Example Article/Temp or Talk:Example Article/Dumping ground, for example the kind of "/Temp" pages that can be created from Template:Copyvio, which allow editors to begin creating an entirely new article from scratch while the copyright violation is being sorted." I suggest moving this to article talk temp accordingly since the article is currently locked for editing due to content disputes. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  13:39, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I mean, it makes more sense to me to just workshop changes on the article talk page. Template:Talk quote block is useful for this. But it ought not be in a mainspace subpage, because these get picked up by "random page" and so can unexpectedly dump readers on a back-end page without explanation.

 * I believe "temporary" is the operative word here. The quotes can be used but the talk page has several ongoing threads for the disputes. I believe, it is easier to track the edit history in the temporary subpage at the article talk page instead of mixing everything with the discussion at talk page. -- D Big X ray ᗙ  13:55, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Move it to Talk:Rafale deal controversy/sandbox, then it remains a subpage in mainspace but won't get picked up by random page crawl. Bash Burger! ——  SerialNumber  54129  14:07, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
