Talk:Mathematics/Sandbox


This page is in talk page namespace, but appears to be a copy of an article. It doesn't appear to be actively being edited. If an editor wishes to trial modifications to an article then it's probably best done as a subpage of their user page. DexDor (talk) 21:39, 9 August 2014 (UTC)


 * I created the page in response to this edit request Talk:Mathematics . An editor said they wanted to translate the article but could not get the source because the article is edit-protected. So I made them a copy in the sandbox that they could access. I'll put a note on the talk page saying it will be removed after Wednesday, Aug. 13. Then I will remove it myself. --agr (talk) 03:24, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. It is always possible to copy the source of a non-deleted page, even if you have the most basic rights and the page is fully-protected. Instead of an "Edit" tab, there will be a "View source" tab. Click that, and it opens what appears to be a normal edit window, except that you can't change anything inside it. But you can still mark text, and use the "copy" feature of the browser (but not "cut"); the copied text may be pasted elsewhere. On a Windows system, you can mark and copy all of the text by clicking anywhere inside that edit window, then press  and then . -- Red rose64 (talk) 23:02, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I know that now. I assumed the requestor did not have any way to get the source and didn't try with a logged out browser.--agr (talk) 18:35, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

I have deleted the page as promised. This can now be closed.--agr (talk) 15:51, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
