Hello,
is it usual, that some E-Mail-Addresses cannot be verificated for the WikiData test pages? I recently tried again to get access did not succeed. No verification mail was sent to me.

I don't think the demo is even set up to send out emails. You should be able to do everything you need there without a verified email address. If not please let me know.

So it is intended that usual users can't add or edit entries? I can only watch the entries and see suggestions if I type anything in.

Both should be possible. If it is not working it is a bug. That part was being reworked and there was a problem which might not have been fixed yet. I'll ask tomorrow.

I thought verifying the mail-address is required.

Ok I asked around and we also tried it here with an anonymous user, normal user and admin. All worked. Is it still not working for you? If so please send me your user-name off-list and we'll investigate some more. Thanks for testing btw :)

I just tried again and did not succeed adding the entry Boarisch (bar) | Helium. Ah ok, sorry was my fault. I didn't realize that it looks for existing pages and there is no Helium page in bavarian dialect. Sorry and thank you for testing again.

Ah so it isn't obvious that this is only picking up existing articles. I'll make sure this is on the list of things to fix. Thanks.
