A "sandbox" is a medium in WikiDoc that can be used for practicing the commands for basic editing.
It is recommended that the sandbox should be used alongside training on basic editing.
To create a User Sandbox:

Click on "Create a New Page" (found at the bottom left side of every WikiDoc page)
Type "sandbox:xyz (xyz here can be the name or initials of the scholar)"
- E.g., John Smith's user sandbox can be "sandbox:JS", "sandbox:JSmith", "sandbox:John Smith", or "sandbox:JSM"
Press "Go"
This will result in the creation of a new page that can be used as practice field during and after training
