User:BelowTheSun/Useful stuff
This is just a small collection of links and other tools I find useful, but didn't want to clutter up my userpage with. I don't really expect this to be of much use to anyone but me, but feel free to prove me wrong!

Commenting on things
[edit]

- Should it be a requirement for all administrators seeking resysop to have completed their last administrative action within the previous five years?
- Extended-confirmed pending changes and preemptive protection in contentious topics
- Are portals encyclopedic, and are they appropriate redirect targets?
- Should recall petitions be limited to signatures only?

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 userpage.
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.
