I just discovered Wikipedia's sandboxes, and plan to use the following pages to draft or otherwise massively edit articles, and make sure they look decent before moving the contents to the designated pages.
Structure
edit- Sandbox 1 - Roman history articles out in Wikipedia
- Sandbox 2 - new Roman history articles created by me, with revisions
- Sandbox 3 - Indian history
- Sandbox 4 - British aristocratic history
Articles in sandbox
