The result of the discussion was: Userfy . Moved to User:Sam Paris/sandbox 2 as the base sandbox is occupied by something else. ♠ PMC♠ (talk) 23:15, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
Draft:Lard oil
This draft appears confusing, because it contains facts about 4 different bolded subjects. Should it be deleted or moved to Sam Paris's userspace? GeoffreyT2000 ( talk) 02:45, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Userfy - Should not have been moved to draft space by User:GeoffreyT2000, can be moved back to user space. Robert McClenon ( talk) 03:11, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Userfy should have remained where it was. Sam Paris the writer has been active this year, so there's no hurry to do something with it. Graeme Bartlett ( talk) 03:27, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep it looks like a promising draft but why move it and then try to delete it? Legacypac ( talk) 04:23, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Move back to sandbox where user is developing several articles in one file. Should not have been moved to mainspace. Pam D 06:39, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Delete I'm not entirely sure how I managed to post this in the first place. As noted by PamD, I'm developing several articles at once in my sandbox, which seems like the right place to do this. Should I first create a "draft" article when I'm ready to post a real article? Sam Paris ( talk) 12:08, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Comment - User:Sam Paris - You can use your sandbox for any of various reasons and purposes, including multiple purposes, as long as you don't submit it to Articles for Creation. You should not submit a page to Articles for Creation unless you want it reviewed and are ready for it to be accepted as an article. If you submit it, and it is not accepted, it will commonly be moved to draft space with a title. It appears in this case that your sandbox was mistakenly moved to draft space. (Draft space, like article space, should have one page for one subject.) If you have any more questions about sandboxes, you can ask at the Teahouse. In your case, you were developing four or so drafts in one sandbox. That is unusual, but it is acceptable for the use of a sandbox. You might consider developing multiple draft articles in multiple pages, but developing multiple draft articles in one sandbox is permitted. Robert McClenon ( talk) 16:00, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy Userfy - Just to note this was at Sam Paris/sandbox (ie not at User:Sam Paris/sandbox) so it's understandable the nominator moved this, In short userfy - THERESNOTIMELIMIT for sandboxes so I would suggest we ignore the delete and allow the creator to work on their article in their own time. – Davey2010 Talk 22:35, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
