Inkubationsprojekte
Incubator
Der Incubator ist ein Projekt, das Sprachversionen beim Start hilft, während sie noch eine eigene Community aufbauen. Es gibt hier ein Wiki für alle Sprachen.
Mehrsprachiges Wikisource
The ursprüngliche Domain von Wikisource bietet drei verschiedene Arten an Inhalten: Werke, die selbst mehrsprachig oder ohne Sprache sind (z. B. musikalische Partituren), Werke, die in einer Sprache verfasst sind, die eine sehr kleine Menge an Literatur hat, und Werke in Sprachen, die auf ihre eigene Subdomain verschoben werden können.
Wikiversity beta
Wikiversity beta wird zum Aufbau neuer Wikiversity-Projekte genutzt.
Organisations- und Planungsprojekte
Öffentliche Wikis
Meta-Wiki
Dies ist ein mehrsprachiges Projekt für Meta-Diskussionen zu allen Angelegenheiten, die die Wikimedia-Projekte als Ganzes betreffen sowie für die Koordination der Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Projekte. Für weitere Informationen siehe Meta:Über.

These kinds of things should *not* go here or on any wiki for that matter:

Wikimedia Foundation
- boardwiki – for the Board of Directors and Executive Director
- collabwiki – for private workspace for collaboration between Wikimedia staff and external contractors; as of 2014, used e.g. for fundraising translations
- The fundraising systems are naturally sensitive, and thus are documented on CollabWiki to restrict access to that information.
- Also used for random non-public information shared between fundraising team members (and others?) which doesn't need to be kept secret from officewiki users.
- officewiki – for Wikimedia staff-only documentation (eg. HR, Office IT and other internal procedures)
- The Office IT systems are for staff use only and are documented on OfficeWiki to limit information about sensitive staff-only resources.
- Note: some contacts info are on CiviCRM instead (or many other places): http://contacts.wikimedia.org

Test wikis
This list is extremely incomplete. Help expand it or, better yet, join the discussion about them.
- Subdomains of Main Domains
- test.wikipedia.org
- test2.wikipedia.org
- test.wikidata.org
- test-commons.wikimedia.org - This has been closed
- Beta Cluster (runs in Wikimedia Cloud VPS)
- Main page: https://beta.wmflabs.org/
- Test wikis that run with URLs like https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org, https://simple.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org, https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org, etc.
- Subdomains not following any clear rule like http://education.wmflabs.org
- wmflabs.org wikis are not meant to host any original content (discussion, reports or whatever) but should only be considered as short-lived sandboxes. However, most of them don't give this very valuable information to most users.
Additional Info
Name | Version of MediaWiki | Description | URL | Status |
---|---|---|---|---|
Test Wikipedia | Current Wikimedia production version | Hosted within the production cluster, runs the current Wikimedia production branch of MediaWiki. It is most useful for various tests of features before even applying them on other production wikis, like scripts or in upon testing other features. | test.wikipedia.org | Open |
Test2 | Current Wikimedia Production Version | Matches test.wikipedia.org. | test2.wikipedia.org | Open |
Beta Cluster | Latest Master From Git | Isolated clone of the production cluster, deployed directly from git. May be unstable. Users can test gadgets and scripts for compatibility with future releases. Wikis here are not accessible from anywhere, nor explained clearly, nor have an index or any navigation tool. | beta.wmflabs.org | Open |
Queries and data analysis
For a structured list of Wikimedia wikis with details like the main and mobile domain names; database codes; and closure, visibility, and editability status, see gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/movement-insights/canonical-data/-/blob/main/wiki/wikis.tsv (readme file).
Public Wikis
Most analysis is focused on publicly-editable wikis (unlike, for example, Office Wiki, accessible only to Wikimedia Foundation staff), not meant for software testing (e.g. Test Wikidata), and not temporary (e.g. Wikimania 2016).
On the Toolforge replica, use the "meta" database to find information about Wikimedia wikis and their databases. This example returns wikis, which are active now:
select
dbname as db_name,
family as project,
lang as language,
url as domain
from wiki
where is_closed = 0
Query for getting a list of public wikis (tailored to some database accessible to researchers):
select
site_global_key as db_name,
site_group as project,
site_language as language,
concat("https://", trim(leading "." from reverse(site_domain))) as domain
from enwiki.sites
where site_group in (
'betawikiversity', 'commons', 'incubator', 'labs', 'mediawiki', 'meta', 'outreach',
'sources', 'species', 'wikibooks', 'wikidata', 'wikinews', 'wikipedia', 'wikiquote',
'wikisource', 'wikiversity', 'wikivoyage', 'wiktionary'
)
Closed Wikis
Some wikis (both public and private) are closed to any further editing. The canonical list is at https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/dblists/closed.dblist.
Content Wikis
These are wikis that display content meant for the general public rather than specifically for the Wikimedia community (analogous to content namespaces).
These are wikis in the following site groups:
(
'betawikiversity', 'commons', 'incubator',
'sources', 'species', 'wikibooks', 'wikidata', 'wikinews', 'wikipedia', 'wikiquote',
'wikisource', 'wikiversity', 'wikivoyage', 'wiktionary'
)
Off-The-Farm Projects
These are certain projects that are not officially hosted on the Wikimedia server farm, but are also most practically used though by the projects.
Translatewiki.net
Translatewiki.net is a project that is used to translate many of the more effective strings for some of the Common Gateway Interfaces and other creative tools that the Wikimedia sites use.

- List of canonical domain names owned by the Wikimedia Foundation, including some non-wikis ("While the Foundation may own many other domains for trademark, legal, or project/redirect reasons, there is only one small set which are considered to be the canonical set for our actual projects and content, which are subjected to higher standards.")
- OpenStreetMap (OSM) is a collaborative project which is similar to a wiki in that people around the world contribute geographic data that can be used for many aspects related to mapping. Integration between OSM and WMF projects is close and much of their data can be reused within Wikimedia projects. See more details at mw:Maps.
