Hello, Mahta Amanian, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I cannot find the "More" tab to move my sandbox to the main space. Mahta Amanian (talk) 23:00, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should be right of the "Edit" button at the top of the page, left of the search bar. If you still can't find it, use this link instead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MovePage/User:Mahta_Amanian/sandbox -- and you can edit the part after "MovePage/" to any page you want to move. --BurritoBazooka If you reply here, please add {{ping|BurritoBazooka}} to your message 23:50, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply however I do not see it. Also, I clicked on the link you sent but it says "You cannot move pages because your account is too new or is blocked from editing.You cannot move pages because your account is too new or is blocked from editing." @BurritoBazooka:

Yes, indeed, your account is too new to be able to move pages. And moving your current sandbox into articlespace would be a bad idea, since it contains material copied from another website (but you attributed it, which was good) and because it is little more than a dictionary definition. Spend some more time learning how to write a suitable WP article (have you read the WP:Your first article instructions?) and in a couple more days you should have the move function available to you and you may understand better when it would be proper to use it. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 04:39, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Jmcgnh: Thank you so much!!

Hi. Your sandbox is User:Mahta Amanian/sandbox.

At this point you can't move a page because your account is less than three days old. That said, I'm not sure why you're trying to move your sandbox at all. Why is this something you're trying to do at this point? Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 12:49, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It was part of the training! It taught us how to move out of our sandbox but I saw that I did not have one of the buttons to do so. Thanks for the help!

Oh, yes, of course. I should have thought of that :) Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:29, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
