Articles
[edit]Articles worked in small groups need to be developed collectively in the sandbox of one of the members ("group leader") before publishing it into Wikipedia. All participants should contribute individually to the contents (all edits are recorded in the page history).
Group sandboxes will be listed above. For a user named "Johndoe22", his sandbox is [[User:Johndoe22/sandbox]]
.
If you want to link to a page of Wikipedia in a different language, simply add the prefix with the language code in the link, e.g. [[:it:Utente:MarioRossi/Sandbox]]
Please note: if you want to expand an existing article, please copy first the source (wiki code) of the article into your sandbox, then work on it safely.
If you want to translate an article, copy the wikitext of the original article into your sandbox in the final language.
