Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. A tag has been placed on User:Инквизитор771/sandbox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to consist of writings, information, discussions, or activities not closely related to Misplaced Pages's goals. Please note that Misplaced Pages is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

- Hello,
- I noticed a deletion notice was placed on this page. I want to clarify that this is my personal sandbox (User:Инквизитор771/sandbox), which I use for drafting and experimenting with content. It is not intended to be a public article.
- Please let me know if there's any issue I need to address or if this was a misunderstanding.
- Thank you, Инквизитор771 Инквизитор771 (talk) 22:04, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, I will elaborate. I am an alternate history fan myself, so I understand the appeal of having realistic, Misplaced Pages-style content in your fictional creation. But Misplaced Pages is not a a web host, and users should not store material unrelated to Misplaced Pages on Misplaced Pages, including in userspace. Specifically, user pages like your sandbox should not be used for writings, information, discussions, and activities not closely related to Misplaced Pages's goals. As disappointing as it may sound, Misplaced Pages is not a place to work on alternate history projects. (I believe that there are free versions of MediaWiki, or similar software, that you can install and use to make Misplaced Pages-style content on your own device.)

- Hi Huntthetroll,
- Thank you for your response and for explaining the policy. I appreciate your understanding of the appeal of realistic, Misplaced Pages-style content for alternate history projects.
- I understand that Misplaced Pages is not a web host and that user pages should focus on Misplaced Pages-related activities. My intention was to use my sandbox as a personal space to draft and experiment, ultimately aiming to improve my editing skills and understanding of the platform's guidelines.
- I would like to request a bit of leniency with my sandbox for a short period while I transition my content to a more appropriate platform. This would allow me to continue enjoying my creative projects without violating Misplaced Pages's policies.
- In the meantime, I will ensure that any content in my sandbox remains strictly personal and does not interfere with the mainspace or Misplaced Pages’s goals.
- Thank you for your understanding and assistance.
- Best regards, Инквизитор771 (talk) 22:46, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Glad to be of assistance. I don't have the ability to delete pages myself; I merely mark them for the attention of someone who does. That person will, upon reviewing the tagged page, decide whether it unquestionably meets the criteria for speedy deletion and whether the explanation that you have posted here is sufficient.

Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.
