The '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Sandbox|FamilySearch Wiki Sandbox]]''' is a page designed for testing and experimenting with [[Help:wiki markup|wiki syntax]].
 
The Sandbox was created as a place with fewer rules and policies than other pages on FamilySearch Wiki. For example, you don't have to follow the [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] or reach community [[FamilySearch Wiki:consensus|consensus]] before making a major change. However, it must not be used for malicious purposes, and policies such as [[FamilySearch Wiki:no personal attacks|no personal attacks]],  [[FamilySearch Wiki:civility|civility]], and [[FamilySearch Wiki:Copyrights|copyrights]] still apply.
 
If you have a [[FamilySearch Wiki:FamilySearch Account|FamilySearch Account]], you can create your own sandbox in your [[FamilySearch Wiki:user page|userspace]]. You can find your user sandbox [[Special:Mypage/Sandbox|here]]. (And if it doesn't exist yet, feel free to create it!)
