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.

Please help me with... I want to translate articles from Japanese to English. I tried doing it with the Special Content Translation feature but it says I can't because I'm too new to Wikipedia. How can I build up the experience requirements to be able to start adding the English translations?
Thank you. Sayjay1995 (talk) 02:06, 19 May 2022 (UTC)Sayjay
- You can make translations the old-fashioned way. Open a user-space draft and translate away. Include an attribution back to the original article. You may find that ja-wiki articles need additional references to meet en-wiki standards, and it would be nice if you provided English translations of at least the titles of sources that are in Japanese using the
trans-title=
parameter. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 03:00, 19 May 2022 (UTC)- Thank you so much! I'll try that.
