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.

Connection to the linked websites?
[edit]Hi Awordaboutawards,
Could you take a moment to describe your affiliation with / relation to the websites you have linked to?
How did you identify which articles still lack a link to the official website? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:14, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- I am not affiliated with any of the websites. I was merely adding a link to the authors' own websites. I use Wiki to find that kind of info. I found each author's site on my own and thought I could save other interested parties the extra step of research.
- Looking at their profiles for the authors I am interested in, if they don't have a website linked, then I have provided it. In many cases, there is no website, which of course I didn't add anything.
- I thought that making profiles as robust as possible was a good thing, but perhaps not. Awordaboutawards (talk) 01:52, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
