:I mention this because I'm working in the 'WikiIslam:Sandbox' and my worry is whether this sandbox is shared by other editors? And if it is, does that mean that if someone else uses it my work will be erased? If this is the case then I will need to save the page's coding on my desktop each time I finish a session. (in Editing Help there is mention of 'user sandboxes' - but I presume that I'm not able to create one yet). Apologies if my worries are a bit naïve...

::The zeal to contribute is a marvelous thing. And I agree with you entirely - FGM and MGM should each have their own pages on the wiki. ATM, there is only a QHS page on FGM, which, like all QHS pages, is simply intended as a place to compile primary sources. The sort of work you are doing is better suited to a dedicated FGM page and MGM page. I've gone ahead and made [https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Female_Genital_Mutilation_in_Islamic_Law this page for FGM]. You should move your substantive edits to that page instead (and add a lead, etc. - the QHS page should really just be primary sources with an optional text summary of the quotes/any given section of quotes, as you can see on any other QHS page). For MGM, perhaps the page is better titled 'Male Circumcision in Islamic Law', as this is how it is more commonly known. Alternatively, we could have a page titled 'Khitan (Circumcision) in Islamic Law' which could be for either Male circumcision alone or both FGM and Male circumcision. What are your thoughts? | |||
::Also, try to see if you are able to create this page: https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Flynnjed/Sandbox - If you aren't able to create this page for some reason, I'll work with other site admins to make sure this is functional in the future. As it stands, you are correct - any other editor would be able to remove your content from WikiIslam:Sandbox, and this is not ideal (however, you would still be entirely able to recover the work by viewing a previous version of the page under 'view history' in the top right corner of the screen).
