Forum:Requesting articles without actually creating them
Hi guys, I am a brand new user so I am unfamiliar with a lot of the procedures for many things, so please be nice. :)
I was wondering how to request subjects for articles to be written, without actually creating a new article and having it be empty/populated with nothing substantial.
Basically, how do I add topics to the "To Do" list?
OR
If I was to create a new article on the subject I wanted, is it possible to not "publish" it for the world wide web just yet, and keep it as a hidden article until it contains a good amount of content, and then "publish" it for everyone?
Thanks in advance for any help.

- You can add titles to the to do list... by clicking "edit" next to "Recent suggestions." Blue (is useful) 03:00, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

- Note that pages created in your userspace are still publicly visible, though harder to find in the usual way. If you want a page to be completely private while you are working on it, the only way to do it is to keep the code in a plain text file on your computer. You can copy/paste the code in an edit box at the wiki, edit it, use "show preview" to see if the formatting is correct, and then copy/paste it back to the file.--ZooGuard (talk) 08:05, 1 May 2012 (UTC)
