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.

Hello, I'm Actualcpscm. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Rvssian, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Actualcpscm (talk) 19:02, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
Gish Mill
If I were actually using the articles for creation helper script, it probably would have published something here saying that your article Gish Mill (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) was published to mainspace. But, I don't have that tool, so I'll just congratulate you manually. Thanks for your contribution. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 20:05, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
- My first article! Thank you kindly. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 20:36, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
Removal of song samples
Why did you remove song samples from a professional songwriters Wikipedia page? The legal source of cjp-nhrecords wants to know as well as the person who created the page will contact you in regards. It’s Sampling to prove the truth of artists songwriting abilities & not advertising. IF you are licensed by law to remove please refer to that legal section for reasoning unless respectfully it’s your emotionally based decision. Thank you. 68.7.39.189 (talk) 19:23, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
Is ANYONE allowed out of emotional distress against an artist to remove samples on Wikipedia pages of that artists recordings? 68.7.39.189 (talk) 19:25, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hello IP. I moved your initial comment to its proper section. In regards to your comment's substance, I assure you I have no "emotional distress against" Ms. Hornsby, the song samples simply did not meet the contextual significance required per WP:SAMPLE. The rest of the article was an entire mess as well, but luckily a few other editors stepped in and did some good work to it. It looks like one audio clip has been restored, which is plenty - hopefully that satisfies you. In the future, please keep WP:LEGAL in mind when commenting on talk pages, your first comment is riding a fine line. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 16:01, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
