File movers group
[edit]A File movers group with the right "Move files (movefile)" has been created on English Wikipedia. I propose that we create one here, to allow testwiki to better reflect the current state of English Wikipedia, and to allow testing on testwiki before admins on English Wikipedia start granting the right. See also: bugzilla:27927, m:w:User talk:NuclearWarfare/Archive 30#Closing_Filemover_Proposal, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:NuclearWarfare&oldid=417730429#Closing_Filemover_Proposal , http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28proposals%29&oldid=417733334#Transferring_over_.22filemover.22_tool , and m:w:Wikipedia talk:File mover/proposal. — Jeff G. ツ 22:40, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
- Support Sounds as if it would be helpful because: "The Wikipedia Test Wiki may also be used in a classroom environment for teaching basic Wikiediting [...]" (WP:NOT). --Trevj (talk) 11:26, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
- Support Hazard-SJ ± 22:38, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- Support as well. Can someone file the bugzilla request if there are no concerns? A7x (talk) 00:45, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
Testing a bot?
[edit]Dear friends, I am not sure, but it seems to me that it wouldn't be a problem to make some small-scale testing of my bot. Nevertheless I would love to have an approval before I would ever start. So? Or there is some better MediaWiki wiki to do it? Thanks a lot. Okino (talk) 17:19, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- There isn't really a bot policy here, so go ahead, but don't be outrageous ;). On a side note, you meant Wikimedia wiki, right? MediaWiki is the software... Hazard-SJ ± 22:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
- Well, thanks a lot. On a side note, I did not mean Wikimedia wiki, as I know hundreds of Wikimedia wikis (which are not test wikis), but the bot is more or less a MediaWiki thing than a Wikimedia thing, so for a bot there can be a better MediaWiki test wiki than this Wikimedia MediaWiki test wiki ;-)))) Okino (talk) 01:16, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
- I think what Okino might have been referring to was MediaWiki.org. In any case, have fun with the testing. —stay (sic)! 00:57, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Wikisource development
[edit]It would be useful to have a place where development of the ProofreadPage Extension and associated modules could be tested, as well as to test the use of the index space templates (these are heavily dependent on js and css that are difficult to test without having likely negative effects on the presentation of works across a live project). We relied for a long time almost solely on ThomasV's brilliance and time. Unfortunately, he ran out of the latter. Would it be possible/appropriate to do this development here and if so, should we request bugzillas to have the appropriate extensions and namespaces added? Alternatively, should Wikisource consider having it's own development wiki?--Doug (talk) 17:37, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
- Is there a specific time period for this? Hazard-SJ ± 01:33, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- I don't understand the question. I guess the answer is no, I'm not aware of any proofreadpage devs with great ideas an no place to test them; because nobody is developing ProofreadPage now. All of Wikisource depends on ProofreadPage these days and it's extremely easy to break. The recent problems with line breaks could possibly have been worked more effectively (or at least by more people) if there had been a place to do it. Advances on proofreadpage or new wikisource processes entirely are just not happening. Without a place to try out changes and show them to the community before they're fielded, it's unlikely that anyone is going to take this up. So, no, we don't have a deadline, or even a target, but we would like to find a place that we could develop things that are wikisource specific. I'm not sure that this is the right place to do it, I just ran across this place and thought "hmm, I wonder if this is what we need".--Doug (talk) 12:24, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, I'm aware of that page and have edited it before. That's just a place where we track issues and try to work out the js and css problems we find - after a release, it is maintained mostly by User:Phe who is not developing extension:proofreadpage; nobody is. There is nowhere on wikisource.org to test possible changes to proofreadpage nor to test the performance of proofreadpage under the changes of an upcoming release.--Doug (talk) 00:59, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
- . . . and there won't be, it's a live wiki. ;-) Which is kinda the point to this post.--Doug (talk) 01:11, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
- I know this is a slow wiki but no response in nearly a year? This was and is a serious request.--Doug (talk) 23:06, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Where does one request adminship on test.wikipedia?
[edit]I'm testing a modification to the AFCH script created by User:Mabdul and because the script moves pages, I would like to be able to delete the pages in between tests so that I don't have to make a bunch of test pages when I only need a couple. I'm an administrator/bureaucrat/steward on http://mediawikiwidgets.org http://ddowiki.com http://torwiki.com and a handful of others, so I'm not just looking to "play with" or "test out" administrator functions, I'm well aware of their capabilities and restrictions, thank you. Technical 13 (talk) 16:08, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- Have a bit of a look around for it. (Hint: it's linked from the Main Page of all places.) You can't become an admin until you find the requests page :) This, that and the other (talk) 11:52, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Proposal for additional namespaces for Test Wiki
[edit]Should Test Wiki have additional custom namespaces? Please see bugzilla:52528. This, that and the other (talk) 10:41, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
- FWIW, the change to add the custom namespaces was merged. Done I guess. John Vandenberg (talk) 16:10, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Just out of curiosity
[edit]What the fuck happened to this site? Everything's displaying the names of system messages rather than the system messages themselves. Not that I care that much, this is only the test Wikipedia.

Strange layout
[edit]TestWiki's CSS is giving me some heartache. This is what I mean. I've already tried en:WP:BYPASS and multiple browsers, and the problem persists -- but only when I'm logged in (when I'm logged out, it looks fine). Any thoughts? Theopolisme (talk) 15:36, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
- Bypassing the cache is more like purgeing a page. Try clearing your CSS-or use your global.css stylesheet instead-it will effect EVERY wiki, including this test wikipedia, the other test wikipedia, and the test wikidata. Lemondoge (talk) 15:04, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Flow-enabled talk pages for testing?
[edit]I'm working on the Co-op project in this space: Wikipedia:Co-op, and I need a couple of Flow-enabled talk pages for developing User:MatchBot. Who can I talk to to get Flow enabled on Wikipedia:Co-op/Mentor1 and Wikipedia:Co-op/Person1?
In the process of looking for a Flow-enabled test page, I found that Talk:Sandbox gives me the following error: [74d21412] /wiki/Talk:Sandbox Exception from line 61 of /srv/mediawiki/php-1.25wmf7/extensions/Flow/includes/Model/UserTuple.php: User has both id and ip.

Material Design
[edit]I would love to see material design on wikipedia. Animations are a very key part of Google's Material Design. Will wikipedia start to use animations in the future (or material design)? I'd be so happy if people were working on it. LasPo rocks (talk) 01:11, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

- @Rubbish computer: Thanks for asking. That is a new tag in this implementation of MediaWiki, but not in the stable production implementation on English Wikipedia. If introduced on English Wikipedia, I am sure the "annoying" part would draw criticisms of violation of en:WP:NPOV and en:WP:AGF on the part of the implementation team or individual responsible. — Jeff G. ツ 15:51, 1 April 2017 (UTC)

Inactive admins
[edit]I think adminship from accounts which is inactive (locally or globally to be determined) for 1 or 2 years (to be determined) should be removed. They may cause security issues (compromised admins can easily place malicious code to common.js). They may rerequest adminship in anytime if needed. Any comments?--GZWDer (talk) 16:31, 31 August 2017 (UTC)

upload_by_url
[edit]Intended to use this wiki for testing upload_by_url before applying for extended-uploader on Wikimedia Commons. Found the following facts:
- I’m already an extended-uploader locally;
- Special:Upload refuses to fetch a file from http://course.irccity.ru/qq-64.png (my domain and my old own work), citing Copy uploads are not available from this domain.
I’m unwilling to search, in a brute-force manner, for domains from which uploads are “available” (as I guessed, this means permitted). Suggestions? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:39, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Incnis Mrsi: I'm not terribly technical but it looks like this is a setting in $wgCopyUploadsDomains and that is only viewable if you can access the LocalSettings.php on the server side--it's not something outward-facing on the wiki itself. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 21:49, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

[edit]I tried to test SALTing a page today in Twinkle with a level of extendeconfirmed, and I got the API error protect-invalidlevel. Is the extendedconfirmed user group turned off on this wiki? Would it be worth filing a phab ticket to turn it on so that this wiki more closely matches enwiki? Thanks. Novem Linguae (talk) 15:29, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Novem Linguae: IIRC, there was a similar request, and the answer was something about a mirror of enwiki at Beta Cluster. However, I think you can still try filing a Phabricator task. Normally a site request requires some solid consensus, but this is a test wiki so... NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh Name me 17:54, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
