Many times you may want to just 'test' an idea for a template, I haven't found a sensible way of fully testing templates by themselves (as they will not get included in the edited version, but rather the saved version).

The idea of this Template:Sandbox is to have that, a simple testing zone that will not interfere with others and avoid leaving a trail of botched attempts.

Please leave this comment/text for others to read.

Usage

{{ Sandbox
  | someText
  | display = { block        # Object is rendered as a block element.
                none         # Default. Object is not rendered.
                inline       # Object is rendered as an inline element sized by the dimensions of the content.
                inline-block # Object is rendered inline, but the contents of the object are rendered as a block element. Adjacent inline elements are rendered on the same line, space permitting.
                list-item    # Object is rendered as a block element, and a list-item marker is added.
                table-header-group # Table header is always displayed before all other rows and row groups, and after any top captions. The header is displayed on each page spanned by a table.
                table-footer-group # }
}}

Countries interested in the offer then decide if the offer is of their liking or not. If it is, negotiations and/or talks can start with the OLPC, and it's only then that they appear on the OLPC radar, and given a color/status depicting the level of commitment or interest.}}
