[Proteopedia] Sandboxes for article development

[Eric Martz]

At a class workshop at my campus this morning
(http://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Proteopedia:News#Adoptions_in_University_Classes 
)

it became clear that quite a few students (whose first language was 
not English) were not familiar with the word "sandbox". This inspired 
me to write the illustrated article
http://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Help:Sandboxes

where I also describe procedures for creating a protected sandbox, 
then using it to develop a new article, then copying the wikitext 
into a permanent, appropriately titled topic page when it is ready (a 
strategy emphasized by Wayne Decatur in the class today).

The new Sandboxes article may be worthwhile to point out to anyone 
beginning to learn how to author content in Proteopedia.
