* Userspace Drafts are typically made on a "[[Wikipedia:User pages#SUB|user subpage]]" (e.g. [[User:Example/Lipsum]]). User-specific drafts may also be located on a subpage in [[Wikipedia:Drafts|Draft space]] (e.g. ''<nowiki>[[Draft:<Article name>/<Username>]]</nowiki>'').

* For a list of all your drafts (and any other subpages you have), click on "Contributions" (at the very top right of any Wikipedia page, if you're logged in), then scroll to the bottom and click the "Subpages" link.

* Note: every edit you make to a userspace draft is potentially visible online to anyone, even though it's in your own space. WhilstAlso, your edits there are 'saved' by hitting the same big, blue ''''Publish changes'''<nowiki/>' button you see when editing existing Wikipedia articles,. donDon't be confused by the term 'publish' in this context., Itit's not the same as actually moving a draft into the main encyclopedia for everyone to find and read. Many people consider only that element as 'publishing', whereas the reality is that everything we do here is published online, whether made in a userspace, a sandbox, a draft article or in a main article.
