May 2009[edit]

Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Racetrack Playa, even if you intend to fix them later. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. You're adding a photo which aside from being far too big for the article, presents a conflict of interest as you appear to be promoting your own work. In addition to that, the photo appears to add nothing to the article not already presented by the large number of photos in this short article. If you would like to insist on squeezing your work in the article, please bring it up for editor consensus on the discussion page prior to attempting to re-add it. If you continue to re-add it without discussing, you will garner further warnings until you have your account blocked. Thanks. Quaeler (talk) 15:59, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This my very first attempt to try to put something on wiki. Sorry about my stumbling around. I just wasn't sure how to do it.

   I have spent extensive time exploring and photographing death valley. The present article on the
 Devil's race track did have a couple of good pictures, but the article fails to show what the 
 racetrack really looks like from first approach and the specter of the ominous Grandstand sentinel. 
 The view that I captured in my grandstand photo is what all people first see on arrival to this 
 mysterious place. Presently there is no clear picture of the grandstand on this page so I felt this 
 important feature should be included. The race track is actually located behind the grandstand 
 and you must hike to the grandstand and surpass it before you can reach the racetrack.
