The '''Wikipedia Test Wiki''' may also be used in a classroom environment for {{tag|teaching}} basic [[wiki]] editing to avoid the great confusion resulting from creating pages and breaking a regular project, although this may not always be desirable because of the occasional difference between the test interface and a typical Wikimedia project interface. | The '''Wikipedia Test Wiki''' may also be used in a classroom environment for {{tag|teaching}} basic [[wiki]] editing to avoid the great confusion resulting from creating pages and breaking a regular project, although this may not always be desirable because of the occasional difference between the test interface and a typical Wikimedia project interface. | ||
<blockquote> | |||
This is a test wiki that runs on the {{tag|MediaWiki}} software. Ordinarily it runs the same version of the code as mediawiki.org (plus other wikis in "{{Wikitech|Deployments/One_week|group 0}}"), but may be configured differently with experimental features. The contents of this site may be volatile and buggy. | |||
;''What we do on this wiki | |||
This is a website for the developers of Wikimedia wikis (that means a number of well-known wikis, including those below) to test their latest coding. This site is a "testing area" of sorts, which allows code to be tested in a controlled environment, without damaging other wikis. | |||
This is not Wikipedia or any other content wiki . . . but rather a testing ground for {{Mw|developers}}. There's not much you can do here unless you're testing code; if you're looking to contribute content, you may wish to visit one of the Wikimedia Projects below. | |||
Please note: there is a beta test cluster created as a replacement for prototype.wikimedia available [https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/ here]. It is a clone of all production wikis, where developers and regular users can test new features before we deploy them to production wiki. In case you want to test gadgets or user scripts on any Wikimedia project, you can also use that site. test.wikipedia.org is not for testing of unreviewed software or MediaWiki, it is a last place where software is deployed before it goes to live production. New software, extensions and gadgets can be deployed immediately to the deployment cluster.</blockquote> | |||
