Sandbox is the common MediaWiki term for a testing page that wiki users can edit to try out the features of a system.
This page is not a test page. The reason is that for trying out Semantic MediaWiki, it is often necessary to change more than one page. For example, inline queries do not make much sense if there is one test page only. Therefore the SMW Project provides a separate site that can be freely edited for testing purposes:
- sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org is used for testing features provided by Semantic MediaWiki. It is running latest master versions of Semantic MediaWiki and some related semantic extensions. Thus it allows you to test the most up-to-date Semantic MediaWiki software (for example, you can check if a bug or issue that you have found was already fixed or is still there). Additionally a number of other extensions supplementing the use of Semantic MediaWiki is available to make testing a useful and rewarding experience.
Please use the above site whenever you want to experiment with Semantic MediaWiki and related extensions.
