- list - a list of your user sandboxes can be inserted here. This needs to be done with square brackets, e.g.
[[User:Example/Sandbox1]], [[User:Example/Sandbox2]]. - selectskin - if this is set to "yes", a menu appears allowing you to select different skins to use with the sandbox.
- noindex - by default, pages with this template transcluded on them are not indexed by search engines. If this parameter is set to anything other than "yes", indexing by search engines is allowed.
- demospace - if this is set to the name of a Festipedia namespace, the template acts as if it was transcluded in that namespace no matter what the actual current namespace is. This is useful for demonstration purposes.
