MF-Warburg, at the risk of making myself sound unusually dense in front of everyone on foundation-l, I'm not yet an expert on cross-wiki Wikipedia research so I need some clarification. My understanding is that Incubator is only for entire new wikis and not experiments for current wikis, but I thought that the A/B testing is intended for implementation on the current English Wikipedia. Would I be correct in restating those sentences as "a hub for A/B testing experiments with Wikipedia templates on all wikis" and "a page for coordinating A/B testing of user talk templates ONLY here on the Incubator for new language Wikipedias"?
Thanks, Pine

Yes, experiments with English Wikipedia templates are done on the English Wikipedia, and on Incubator, we are testing our local Welcome template. The page on Meta lists all the tests that have been made or are currently ongoing (for example, there were also tests on Portuguese Wikipedia).
