:::::In the future, if this type of site is set up, it should be removed from Google via [[mw:Manual:robots.txt|robots.txt]] so that people don't edit it because they mistake it for the main site. Also, there should be a notice that appears on the edit screen warning that the edits won't be preserved.

:::::: | ::::::Good points both. We have to be careful because using robots.txt in this way can cause SEO problems (spiders ignore it rather than index it even though we are ready for them) for index.wiki if we decide to move to it in the future. Since index.wiki has no appreciable presence in the search indices I haven't worried about it. That said, it can dilute wikiindex.org slightly (duplicate content), so I should probably just put the whole thing behind an http_auth login. RE: the notice there is a site notice that shows the following on all pages "NOTE: index.wiki is for testing configuration ... changes to it will not be preserved!".

The IP edits are working (was just the wrong site name), but there is an interaction between WikiEditor and CharInsert that I'd like to resolve before finalizing the move.
