Since we don't have a "sandbox" yet, should that be removed? Also, isn't there a way to "comment-out" lines, so they remain but are not visible?

You might want to keep the sandbox page while you are learning just to test thing out. I don't know what you mean by "comment-out" lines.
This page may be too advanced for you to edit. I was looking at it and maybe you should start out on something less complex. This page was created likely by a professional paid editor/page designer.

Too advanced for me to edit! HAH! Like, just because I have no fucking idea what is going on with the page code doesn't mean that... oh, wait... maybe it does that. Hmm.
Have you noticed that the links on the left - describing each topic - don't work?
Ex: Piped link
http://web.archive.org/web/20050608081931/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piped_link
Archive.org has copies, *but* not of the page source. :- (
RE: Sandbox. Unless I am registered with Wikipedia, there doesn't exist a sandbox for me.
RE: Commenting-out
To "comment out" a line in computer coding, a symbol is placed before the line (often a colon) which causes the line to be ignored when compiling the code to run as an executable. But you knew that already, didn't you? ;- )

I think what you mean is this -<!-- text that is not visible except in edit mode--> This is ONLY used to send other people who may be editing a page a message on why something was added.
The sandbox page will be useful to you down the line when you want to experiment with templates or advanced code etc

I assume you mean when there is a sandbox here at BW.
