User:Almostds/sandbox/100

Welcome to a practice page! After each task, Publish changes... so you don't loose your work.

Task 1: Copy and pasting this page into your sandbox

Click "Edit" and copy and paste the contents of this page into your own sandbox. (Tip: ⌃ Ctrl + a to select all)

• To make a new sandbox page under your account, simply "create a new file" by writing /something after /sandbox in the URL (e.g.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Utl_jung/sandbox/mango)

Then, publish the page. This will give you a copy of this page which you can now freely edit.

Task 2: Fix a typo

Edit the typo in the following sentence: "Fixing tpyos is a simple but useful way to contribute to Wikipedia."

Task 3: Formatting

Make the above, bolded text reading "Task 3: Formatting" into a Heading and make sure it isn't bolded. [Note that Task 3 should then appear automatically in the table of contents section near the top of the page.]

Make this line of text a Sub-heading 1

Turn this line into regular paragraph text instead of this weird box thing-y

Task 4: Adding links

Adding internal link

Link Da 5 Bloods to the Wikipedia article for the movie. (Bonus marks for italicizing the link since movie titles are italicized, even when linked).

Adding external link

Link Spike Lee on IMBD to the external page: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000490/

Editing link

The following link for Tracy Moore is meant to link the the Canadian journalist's article on Wikipedia, but right now it goes to a disambiguation page for that name. Edit the link so it goes straight to the correct page.

"To link or not to link, that is the question"

For the paragraph below, there are too many links—it is overlinked! Remove the ones that you think shouldn't be there.

There is a Wikipedia style manual for linking. The style manual for linking recommends adding red links for pages that don't yet exist.

Task 5: Using elements from other pages

Below this paragraph, copy over the table showing the "Awards and nominations" from Delroy Lindo. This is a bit of a complex table, so if you wanted to do the same table for another actor, it would be easier to duplicate and edit versus create from scratch. (Tip: when something doesn't work copy and pasting in Visual editing, using the Source editing should do the trick...)

Task 6: Add a citation

Add a manual citation to the paraphrased sentence below which was taken from the following article: https://www.pressreader.com/canada/toronto-star/20131219/281827166586179

Rambhaben Jethalal was born in India and moved to South Africa in 1913 as a teenage bride.

Task 7: Infobox

In the space below, replicate the infobox person on the article for Nathaniel Dett, without copy and pasting it ;) Remember: an infobox is a template! To add a template, press "Insert" > "Template".
