To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

"Is google down?"
I am using a windows computer that's built/functions like a chromebook, for future reference. The easter egg works on my shore when the quotation marks are dribbled onto the phrase, but it only sometimes works on my shore without them. Does the easter egg not splash onto your screen when you do it? Do-Droppy (talk) 18:52, 8 November 2022 (UTC)'
Edit on Folketing's article
Hello, I'm not trying to experiment; I thought using "folk", a native Germanic cognate word, would compliment the use of "thing" in the first English literal translation of "folketing" (which is the equivalent of a compound of "folk" and "thing" in English). As you can see, I left "people" alone in second translation, which is more idiomatic than the first. While not completely necessary, I do believe my edit was justified. 2603:3015:D01:8000:6842:D65D:5E25:7F54 (talk) 23:01, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
Rollback granted
Hi Idontknowwhattouseasmyusername300. After reviewing your request, I have temporarily enabled rollback on your account until 2023-04-04. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:52, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Editing Apalachicola Bay
Hi, regarding my recent edit to the Apalachicola Bay article, I believe that the edits were constructive, as the inclusion of redundant URLs when citing journal articles with DOI identifiers is not best practice. 108.246.59.26 (talk) 19:01, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Dred Scott OR text removed
With all due respect, this unsourced, racist and anachronistic sentence ([1]) is clearly OR, which was inserted by a vandal, unnoticed by the antivandals. 107.127.46.50 (talk) 00:46, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
Anti-LGBT curriculum laws in the United States edit removal
Hello Idontknowwhattouseasmyusername300. I specifically intended for other users to add citations and more information as I said in the edit description. If you would like to do more research and add a citation, you can. (I did not know how to add "citation needed".) 209.237.105.194 (talk) 18:58, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
