Many users like to create user subpages to store various bits of information such as welcome templates or other information. For example, if you are drafting a new page that is not ready to "go live", or proposing major changes in redrafting an existing page, a user subpage may be very useful.
To create a subpage simply visit your User page and then append the name of the subpage in your browser's URL bar. For example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:CoolDude would become http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:CoolDude/MySubpageName. When you press the ↵ Enter key you will be prompted to create the new subpage.
If you no longer need a subpage, or wish to have it deleted, you can mark the page with {{db-owner}} or {{db|reason}}.
L'Ukraine a toujours aspiré à être libre ; mais étant entourée de la Moscovie, des États du grand-seigneur et de la Pologne, il lui a fallu chercher un protecteur, et par conséquent un maître, dans l'un de ces trois Etats. Elle se mit d'abord sous la protection de la Pologne, qui la traita trop en sujette ; elle se donna ensuite au Moscovite, qui la gouverna en esclave autant qu'il le put.
