Speedy deletion nomination of User:Enigmainkwell/sandbox

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. A tag has been placed on User:Enigmainkwell/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, or activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals. Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. jlwoodwa (talk) 01:42, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

That was insanely crazy and weird. I just created the account about an hour ago and I am reading and learning as I go along in the "sandbox" environment. Why would you delete my "sandbox" where I am supposed to learn as I read the articles and learn what to do? I just learned how to make a heading and paragraph. Give me a moment to learn.

I see where you're coming from, but please be civil. Many new editors use their sandboxes as if it were a web-hosting area for something they wrote; under criterion U5, if they've made no other edits, those pages can be deleted. I added a tag to your sandbox saying that it met that criterion; an administrator saw that tag, agreed, and deleted it. You can always recreate your sandbox, or if you want its previous contents back, you can ask the deleting administrator. You can also use the Wikipedia:Sandbox for experiments. Now that we've had this discussion, your sandbox shouldn't be deleted again. I apologize if this interrupted your learning. jlwoodwa (talk) 03:22, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
