<b>PublicTestWiki</b>, located at <tt>PublicTestWiki.com</tt>, also known merely as <b>TestWiki</b>, is a [[wiki]]-website that is hosted on the {{tag|Miraheze}} wiki-farm. It is a project with a friendly {{tag|community}} that provides an environment for all wiki-site [[user]]s to experiment with [[sysop|administrator]] permissions, [[template]]s, {{Mw|MediaWiki:Extensions|extensions}}, and other features that are provided by the {{tag|MediaWiki}} software. | |||
In addition to providing a {{tag|testing}} environment, TestWiki also provides {{tag|training}} programs to help users familiarize themselves with running a community. | In addition to providing a {{tag|testing}} environment, TestWiki also provides {{tag|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 [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] users, and other users that want to have administrator permissions. Although the primary working [[:Category:Wiki language|language]] on TestWiki is {{tag|Wiki English|English}} (en), it currently supports a total of {{tag|Wiki Multilingual|twenty languages}} (via the 'Special:Translate' function); those additional being: {{tag|British|British English}} (en-gb), {{tag|Wiki Bengali|Bengali}} (bn), {{tag|Wiki Sorani|Sorani}} (ckb), {{tag|Wiki German|German}} (de), {{tag|Wiki Spanish|Spanish}} (es), {{tag|Wiki French|French}} (fr), {{tag|Wiki Hungarian|Hungarian}} (hu), {{tag|Wiki Italian|Italian}} (it), {{tag|Wiki Japanese|Japanese}} (ja), {{tag|Wiki Korean|Korean}} (ko), {{tag|Wiki Portuguese|Portuguese}} (pt), {{tag|Wiki Brazilian Portuguese|Brazilian Portuguese}} (pt-br), {{tag|Wiki Russian|Russian}} (ru), {{tag|Wiki Sicilian|Sicilian}} (scn), {{tag|Wiki Swedish|Swedish}} (sv), {{tag|Wiki Turkish|Turkish}} (tr), {{tag|Wiki Urdu|Urdu}} (ur), {{tag|Wiki Vietnamese|Vietnamese}} (vi), {{tag|Wiki Chinese|Chinese}} (zh), and {{tag|Wiki Taiwanese|Taiwanese}} (zh-tw); however, it must be noted that not all twenty languages are fully and actively utilized.[https://publictestwiki.com/wiki/Special:SupportedLanguages] | ||

TestWiki does not require 'confirmation edits' on other projects before permissions are granted. | <b>Permissions available</b> | ||
<br> The permissions available for testing at TestWiki largely reflect the permissions available at Wikipedia. Note that there are no requirements to obtaining testing permissions, provided that the user has an account in good standing. A bot grants most rights automatically, with the exception of [[bureaucrat]], and bot. | |||
