Protection

I've protected this page because multiple vandals using different IPs keep vandalizing this. Any admin who feels this has been protected long enough can unprotect, or if no one does, I'll do so tomorrow. -Greg Asche (talk) 03:37, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, unprotected for now. -Greg Asche (talk) 22:13, 10 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Is this testing?

Tester

FYI. Tester is also a lipstic etc. used for testing at cosmetics departements (just go and check out). I think this nerdish male environment has never head of it (included myself) .. //arl

River Test

In addition to the River Test, it might be worth mentioning

Test Valley District, a local government district and
Southampton Test, a UK Parliament constituency.

Testing

Apologies for suddenly twinklefying everything. You can't test some of the tags on the sandbox because it friendly won't tag pages that start with Wikipedia... I reverted it immediatly so no harm done. SGGH ^speak! 15:16, 19 February 2008 (UTC).[reply]

test is not experiment

A test in science is not necessarily an experiment, I think, at least not as defined in experiment, in particular w.r.t. the notion of empiricism. I think of bit testing, primality testing... well, unless one considers the evaluation of a mathematical expression as an empirical method to gain knowledge...— MFH:Talk 14:22, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A test is a comparison of an expectation with an observation. This is skin to experiment, which compares observation to theory. --Ancheta Wis (talk) 23:42, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Defining a 'test'

A "test" in systems engineering is by any combination of four possible accepted methods:

Inspection (It's supposed to be green, and it looks green to me!)
Analysis (includes modeling and simulation or other accepted mathematical or analytic methods)
Test (control stimulus and observation of expected response)
Observation (use in a live environment and based on approval of subject matter experts)

In no way is any of this considered a proof. Its simply a matter of formal acceptance. In engineering, there is no test that can eliminate all possible defects.--71.245.164.83 (talk) 02:06, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sandbox link

The Sandbox link at the top of the talk page is good -- but it would be helpful if a similar link were prominent at the top of the disambig page itself. Note that an innocent person googling "wikipedia test" has a hard time getting to the sandbox -- let's try to make things better! -71.174.178.251 (talk) 19:53, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That seems a useful suggestion to me, so I've added a hatnote. Qwfp (talk) 08:31, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Title and URL of the page

The title of the page should be "Test(disambiguation)", and not only "Test". Correspondigly, the URL of the page should be "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_(disambiguation)" and not only "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.104.110.111 (talk) 14:40, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have created an account - I wasn't sure why I couldn't edit the page. Is registration a separate process from creating an account?

The Software Testing page is not listed under the Technology section. I want this link to be present. Mbplautz (talk) 16:49, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done - have moved Software testing and Toxicology testing up from "See also" and deleted Chemical test from that section as it was duplicated
As for why you couldn't edit the page - your account is not yet autoconfirmed (4 days and 10 edits), which is what you need to edit semi-protected pages - Arjayay (talk) 17:13, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Medical meanings

I don't see any links to the following:

Drug test
Clinical trial (sometimes popularly referred to as a "drug test")
An individual subprocedure of a physical examination—not sure which article is correct for this last one, other than Physical examination itself; Medical sign § Signs as tests is partially relevant

Could these reasonably be added? --SoledadKabocha (talk) 23:28, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Does this work?

hello, i tried to write a comment on the Catalan page but it kept getting lost and i couldn't write anything. I think that the Catalan copy of your website has a very weak signal and i hope that you can get a bigger server or something. It is not very fair when you are trying to learn a foreign language and you spend ages trying to write something and then it just disappears. Also you could do with making it easier for people who are not very technical because it is not always very obvious which button you are supposed to press. I hope this makes sense. Marihuana Rajoy (talk) 04:53, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe you can help me. There is an article in Catalan about the lower part of Navarre which is in France, and they have got the name in Basque but not in French. I think it was written by some kind of Nationalist. But when i want to change it, the exit button on that page is broken because there is never a new screen where you can enter some additional content. Marihuana Rajoy (talk) 05:00, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The edit button not the exit button. There is some kind of spell checker that tries this sort of subterfuge whenever i type. Marihuana Rajoy (talk) 05:02, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

By the way i am English so i don't know whether after Brexit i will lose access to the Catalan pages altogether. Do you know if they are sponsored by the minority languages funding or anything like that? Marihuana Rajoy (talk) 05:06, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Catalan wikipedia is independent. If you contribute edits there you will be aiding Catalan wikipedia when you add in the French name for that part of Navarre. --Ancheta Wis (talk | contribs) 09:22, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments are all visible on Discussió:Baixa_Navarra. You can't edit the page Baixa_Navarra yet as it's semi-protected. User:Jordiventura96 has now read your comments on the talk page and added the French name to the page. A spell-checker won't change one correctly-spelled word into another. Brexit will have no effect on your access to any Wikipedia projects. It might be less confusing to start off by editing your native-language Wikipedia. --Qwfp (talk) 09:29, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
