I too faced difficulties some times. Anonmous editing usually worked, unless the IP itself is blocked. Sometimes while English wiki had access problems, Kannada wiki was accessible for edits. Do you know whom to request for this?

Refer [1]. Most(or All?) stewards can do is my guess.

#wikimedia-stewards^connect on IRC should be able to help out and mostly some one or other is available 24 * 7 (Nice folks! ).

Thanks Srikanth, I will try the next time around.

Oh, btw, current steward elections are currently on, if you havent voted please do!

One solution I think is to setup/use a test wiki, with out constraints for people to practice and then manage it by probably deleting the content periodically.

Not that everyone can do quickly / always feasible.

My idea was for a permanent infrastructure say training wiki that Foundation/Chapter could setup and manage.
