My first article - General questions..

Hello, i will soon be posting my first article onto this site, an SCP.

I just have a few questions that i couldn't find the answers to and i want to make sure about:

1. Once i select my XXXX and start writing and formatting, is there a way to view how the article will look like before posting it for public?

2. Am i able to re-edit my article? Adding to it or replacing an image are my 2 main concerns.

That is all, thank you for your time, take care!

Just so you know, the Sandbox Site was created for this reason and serves as a way for the author to draft out their article and receive critique on it. The process is outlined in How to Write an SCP. If you want to use it, follow the instructions on the main page of the site.

Yes, you are able to edit an article after it's been posted. However, I should note that the most traction an article will gain will be the first few hours after it's been posted. If you're going to post an article, I'd recommend sprucing it up to be the best it can be beforehand, as some aren't going to acknowledge the edits that follow.
