*Join a project. If you have one thing that you are focusing on than you are sure to find yourself making tons of useful edits that people will be proud of.

*At the top of the screen there is an option called "contributions". This is to check what kind of edits you have made recently. I highly suggest using that to see if you are making too many edits to the user mainspace. If a majority of your edits has "user" at the beggining I suggest taking a break from editing the userspace and save it for the next day or save it for when you have made many productive edits to the mainspace.

*Use your userspace to try codes out. If you want to make a template '''for the mainspace''', first try messing with the coding on your userspace. To make a page within your userspace name it like so:
<nowiki>User:Example/YourPageNameHere</nowiki>
:I suggest on the "YourPageNameHere" part put Sandbox since this is what most people use to experiment with codes.
::If you are making a fun page on your userspace (let's say a page on possible future evolutions of pokémon), then it would be ok to give it your own name.
*When in doubt . . . ask an Admin.
**This is always one of the best things you can do when in a pickle. Look for an admin and get help! They will always be open to help you. Just be sure the admin isn't busy.
