{{Discussion top|This policy was proposed in February, and there has been no activity for over a month. The policy is unnecessary, as the proposer themselves noted {{tq|that [the] test pages rarely come up}}. This proposal may be reconsidered for a vote in the future if its necessity is justified, but for now, it fails.

I propose this to you all, the [[User:Faithful/Sandbox|test page policy]]. I know it's not a lot, but I believe that users should at least do it in an organized manner when it comes to testing. This policy is saying everything I should be telling you all here, but I'm giving it a chance to be read by you all to see if it is worthy of being a policy.

*{{oppose|Weak oppose}}, seems very unnecessary. We almost never have new test pages added, and if someone disagreed with one being added, they could simply just propose it be removed on the CP.

**I see your point on the process of adding new test pages. This makes the process pointless from your POV because there could be someone who opposes it and has that page removed via the community portal. However, now I'm starting to believe that mainspace page creation should be restricted to a specific group level, so that users will not fill it with spam or vandalism, except on the abuse filter test. But primarily, because of the test pages. For now, since your point makes sense for the activity period of Test Wiki right now, which is that test pages rarely come up, I'll put it to the side. However, I do believe that users should properly do their test experiments on the right testing page. Hence, if you want to test deletion, go to [[Deletion test]]; if you want to test protection, go to [[Protection test]], and so forth. That should be a policy.
