I have a bunch...did you know that free-space pages are actually profiles?
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Profiles
"I currently have 159."
Yes! I have created 5 so far. They're great. This is one I enjoyed creating.
I created a Space Page for the Vital Records of the British Churches on Madeira. Those are the persons I found in these records. As you can see I, by far, haven't yet created profiles for all of the people, but it is actually my goal. One of the growing number of goals I have here. Many of the people with created profiles aren't yet connected to the Big Tree. If you want to create profiles for those who still don't have profiles or connect people, go ahead.
I use them for a number of different purposes but one that I need to get back to is my personal project to document those from New Brunswick, Canada who fought in the Great War (WWI) at New Brunswick WWI Soldiers.
For those who forget where their Space pages are, you can find them on your Watchlist.
I started out with single space page which I recently had Mary Richardson assist me with redesigning and reorganizing:
Vinh Long Army Airfield
Soc Trang Army Airfield
The Helicopter War in Vietnam
It all started out as a convient place to store some of my Dad's photos etc after he died...the research into the location where he served got addictive and unintentionally turned into a giant project. I'm still working on all three pages.
I have a few ones for personal use too. I store links to my favorite online sources/resources and as well as to keep track of my private library and another one to store old family photos I'm still trying to identify.
The Ontario Team of the Canada Project have eleven listed on our page, everything from settlers groups to Toronto street namesakes, plus we use one to keep track of our work on notables from the province. My own first attempt was one about my great-grandfather's orchard.
Just had a look at the Governors of Queensland. Very impressive!
I created my first one yesterday for the Lindenmuth List of early German Immigrants in the Tulpehocken Valley of Pennsylvania (arriving ~1723-1735). Yes, free space pages are great. I need to improve my skills at finding them, however, because sometimes I encounter a useful free space page only after I need it.
Yes I use space pages mostly for projects I belong to. * I have one for Flooding Disasters, concerning 2010 Floods in Nashville, Tn; *Some pages for Name Studies like Barry Name Study, Fleming Name Study, and other surnames in my family tree; * Space pages I did for the Integrators project and also moderators; * Space page for the Southern Super Sweepers, URL: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Southern_Super_Sweepers * My own space page for bookmarked WikiTree pages; * A space page for the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps which became the Women's Army Corps during World War II that I am most proud of. See URL: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Women%27s_Army_Auxiliary_Corps *And a few others assigned to my account for projects I belong to.
I've got quite a few:

Ron Norman already beat me to it:

And he also did one for MASH

And in case you're interested, one was done for Lawrence Welk too

I discovered that my Ancestors family was buried in an old Cemetery at the Aulds Family Church, built by my Aulds relatives.
Aulds Family Church
I have started including the category for the cemetery on profiles that I find are buried there.
I also created an Auld Name Study Page and a To-Do List page.
I set up an entire project with over 1100 space pages and counting. I call them "spages" for short.
They are a valuable tool on WikiTree.
I'm speechless!
- hi Ken - I have added you to the = https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Victoria_Cross_recipients_-_Australia = with

I have about 59 , and they are found under 'your' Watchlist (top Right) then Free-Space Profiles - an 'index' - - -
- enjoy - - cheers - john.a
I have just started an index page for SPACE pages. The big question I have is should they be alphabetical or broken into categories? (IE groups or types) Advise please? I will probably dump these into a spreadsheet for sorting to make things easier. I also left it open so you could add a link followed by a brief description.
Space Page Index
- hi Steven Tibbetts - Cemeteries should have their own - - see this set-up =>
= https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Western_Australia%2C_Cemetery_Free_Space_Pages =
ie: perhaps based on states or countries to narrow them down - ps a number of Aust cems are going 'on line' , which makes life somewhat easier.
Wow Bob, you are almost equal to Ros in the number of space pages. She has 159!!
First link appears to be missing its fullstop:

Let's try again:
