I've seen some people with multiple troper sandboxes, under Sandbox.This Troper, Sandbox 2.This Troper, etc. How many sandboxes are we allowed?

You can make as many sandboxes as you want, but if they're not contributing in some way to the wiki and/or seem to be abandoned, they're subject to being cut at any time.

Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.

As I replied before the little "incident", ideally there should be one Sandbox page per troper. Making multiple Sandbox namespaces (Sandbox 2, etc.) is a violation of the intent of the namespace system.

[up] Of course, occasionally an exception can be made. For instance, if the page is too big, i.e. over 500 thousand characters, it will need to be split up. However, I'm not sure if there are any tropers dedicated enough to make their troper sandbox that big.

Yeah, I can't imagine why someone would need multiple personal sandboxes. I make a lot of sandboxes but they're all for a specific task I'm working on or for community usage, such as wick checks or my TRS sandbox linked below. That's a bit different than just wanting multiple pages for me to do whatever.
