Wikipedia 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
Commons 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
