Sandbox

Only rule in Sandbox is no throwing sand.

HELP!

You should feel free to play in my Sandbox, where I work on drafts that are not yet ready for prime time. Current Sandbox work is focused on History of poetry. But, it's not really underway yet. I'm working on the List of years in poetry project as a prelude. So not much to do quite yet.

But, the History of poetry page and the List of years in poetry project could each use help. Come on, wander on over.

Contributions

My biggest contributions to date have been helping the Franklin D. Roosevelt page to Featured Article status and rewriting the Poetry article and pushing it through the Featured Article process. Below are a whole bunch of pages I've made some level of contribution to, which I like to keep track of here for one reason or another.

Flying Pig Award

This is not an award I have earned, but one I am holding to give on the day there is a protracted, civil discussion resolving some of the issues about Luther and anti-Semitism on the Martin Luther page. Help us out, be civil, and get yourself a Flying Pig Award!

Kind awards

		The Exceptional Newcomer Award
		With only two months of editing under your belt, your work on poetry is an accomplishment attained by few Wikipedians, even those who have been contributing for years. I'm proud to present you this award. --Spangineer[es] (háblame) 12:54, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
