Sooq subdomain-i sulinngilaq? Sooq URL-i Incubator-imut ingerlatinneqanngilaq? Redirectit qanoq ingerlasarpat?

For a test wiki on Incubator in a language listed on Special:SiteMatrix, the URL redirects to Incubator (redlinks on Special:SiteMatrix). Exceptions:

• Previously existing wikis that were closed (struck-through bluelinks).
• Wikis in languages not listed there (usually Wikipedias).
• Wikiversities and Wikisources.

You can specify a normal URL, and it will redirect to the page on Incubator (xyz.wikiproject.org/wiki/Page → incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wx/xyz/Page) but it will not take into account parameters like "action=history". The base URL xyz.wikiproject.org will redirect to the Wx/xyz/Main_Page if it exists, and it will take into account a "uselang" parameter.

How can we use interwiki links?

For Wikipedia test-projects, you can use interwiki links in the normal format (e.g. [[ru:Page name]] for an interwiki link to the Russian Wikipedia). Wikidata unfortunately does not yet work for Incubator, but there is a bot which updates interwiki links from time to time. Interwiki links in the sidebar from existing Wikipedias to Incubator pages are not possible.

For other projects, you can use interwiki links by adding the project code, e.g. [[en:voy:Page]] for Links to the English Wikivoyage, [[fr:wikt:Page]] for French Wiktionary, and so on.

Prefix

What is a prefix?

A prefix is the first part of a page title, if you go to a random page you will likely go to a page "Wx/xx/Page title". The first two letters indicate the project, then a slash, the following two or three letters indicate the language, then another slash, then the normal page title as it will be when the wiki is created.

Prefixes are used in all namespaces for test-wiki content, e.g. "Template:Wx/xx/Template name" and "Category:Wx/xx/Category name". Note that the language code must be lowercase.

Important note: The Help: and Project: (Incubator:) namespaces are reserved for pages serving the entire Incubator. To create a page for the Help: or Project: (e.g., "Wikipedia:") namespace of your test, place the page in mainspace by putting the namespace in after the prefix (e.g., "Wx/xx/Help:Help page" or "Wx/xx/Wiktionary:Project page").

What is the prefix of our test wiki?

This needs to be Project/code

• Project: Normally the first project you make in a new language is Wikipedia, in which case use Wp, but it can also be: Wiktionary (prefix "Wt/"), Wikiquote (prefix "Wq/"), Wikibooks (prefix "Wb/"), Wikinews (prefix "Wn/"), or Wikivoyage (prefix "Wy/"). Wikisource and Wikiversity projects are hosted elsewhere: oldwikisource: and betawikiversity:.
• Code: The ISO 639 code of your language. The language must have a valid ISO 639 code (search).

Help, I have no ISO code!

Sorry, but you cannot start a test wiki here.

• You can try submitting a request for an ISO 639 code.
• You can start one at Incubator Plus, but you won't get your own Wikimedia wiki.

Why must all pages be prefixed?

There are several reasons:

• Logically, to distinguish the pages between the test languages.

  Assersuutigalugu qupperneq ataaseq (assersuutigalugu "Europa") oqaatsini arlalinni, arlalinni taamaattoq. Misilitsinneq sorleq taamatut ateqartumik allaaserisaqassava? Misilitsinneq alla qanoq iliuuseqartariaqarpa? Prefiksit ajornartorsiut tamanna aaqqippaat.

• The prefixed pages will be imported when your test language has its own subdomain, the unprefixed pages will not.

  Pages have to be imported instead of just copied. It is very, very hard to import pages without a prefix.

• The prefixed pages will be listed in the analysis for your test language, the unprefixed not.

  So, in some way, you will get your own wiki faster :-)

How to link to prefixed pages?

The AddPrefix gadget is enabled by default for everyone (since 2022). Using it, you link to prefixed pages with normal link syntax like you would in any other wiki, and it will be converted into prefixed links. For example, [[Page title]] will be converted into [[Wx/xx/Page title|Page title]] automatically.

If you don't have JavaScript enabled, or if you for some other reason wish to edit without the gadget, you need to add the prefix manually to all links, categories and templates when you edit a test wiki.

I still don't understand it, or I don't know what the prefix is
