Dear Wikibase Cloud Community,
The hosting policy testing process is about to come to an end.
This is your call to test your instance as well as help us evaluate
reasonable results!
You can participate by submitting a short trial application:
- One submission per instance
- ~15 minutes
- reviewed by a committee using the policy criteria
You’ll receive:
- a tentative outcome
- an explanation of the reasoning
The results are non-binding and intended to test whether the policy
actually works in practice.
