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.

Discretionary sanctions notification[edit]
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
Woodroar (talk) 18:05, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
Hello, Woodroar. Rather than go in and fix it myself and open myself up to accusations as this is such a hot button issue, two of the three citations meant to back up the donations to the National Suicide Hotline are dead. I gave a cursory search on the web and found nothing else, but as this is probably best left to those who actually care about such things I leave it with you. Thanks!

2008 South Carolina Learjet 60 crash[edit]
Hi Gamle. Can you please explain what you were trying to say with this edit here: [1]. 'Woman pilot' is neither a statement or a question, and is not helpful since we can't understand what you're trying to say. I'm reverting your edit accordingly, but please feel free to reinstate it with more clarification. Have a nice day. Damien Linnane (talk) 07:13, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
Nope, I cannot explain. Don't drink and edit! I'm sure I had some incredibly profound thought on the matter...haha. Thank you for deleting my nonsense. Gamle Kvitrafn (talk) 01:25, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
Why are you so cool?[edit]
Hi, Gamle Kvitrafn. I just can't understand why you are so cool! I mean, you really rock! I would love to hang out with you sometime. Gamle Kvitrafn (talk) 00:28, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
Hey there! Yeah, I try to be humble about it, but when you are as cool as me it can be difficult! :) How about dinner tonight? I've got some leftover rice and a couple of chicken thighs from last night. You'll love it! Gamle Kvitrafn (talk) 00:28, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
