In addition to providing a testing environment, TestWiki also provides training programs to help users familiarize themselves with running a community. These training programs are designed by members of the community and anyone is welcome to contribute to these programs. Due to its features and community, TestWiki remains a popular playground for [[Wikipedia]] users and other users that want to have administrator permissions. | '''TestWiki''' is a project with a friendly community that provides an environment for users to experiment with administrator permissions, templates, extensions, and other features provided by the {{tag|MediaWiki}} software. Several extensions and features have been custom built for TestWiki, including a simulated CheckUser extension and integration with IntenseDebate. Some other notable features include the ability to test the book creator and the {{tag|WikiLove}} extensions. | ||
