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.

editWelcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to LaGuardia Airport, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. ZimZalaBim talk 18:35, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
Wikilinks
editHi - when you are linking to an existing Wikipedia article, you can use the wikilink code of two brackets, rather than the full URL. For example, to create a link to the article on Earth you'd type [[Earth]], not https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth. --ZimZalaBim talk 18:42, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Soviet invasion of Manchuria, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.
