[edit]
  • User space sandbox User:<name>/sandbox to create draft articles
  • test wikibase site : test.wikipedia.org, best for bulk changes, template testing and API usage testing. Note: enWP templates might be missing, so context will not render and may return LUA errors
  • Draft namespace for collaboration. Many pages lose focus quickly here, so think about motives and timeline to prevent clutter.
  • Admin tools Wikipedia:Requests/Tools on test wiki

[edit]
  • namespace "Sandbox" like File:Sandbox/<user>/filename; if creating test files, after upload use {{SD}} "G1" test page" or "G7" user request for SpeedyDelete to clean up the unused files.
  • beta wikibase site : commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org, create a unique "beta" user like DutchTreatBeta. Your data will be temporary. Use API sandbox

  • wikidata-test . Be aware, the set of properties are different in this wikibase. This makes many tests difficult to reproduce with production.
