We need an upload space where people who care & have the time can test new features on an active (but unpublicized) site before the features go live. Wikipedia is crippled at the moment, and has been almost every time I've visited it in the last several months. When I go to a site on my broadband line at work and it takes 5 minutes to bring up a page, that is IMO a crippled site. We can't expect the casual user to have any patience for it, and also can't expect new users to want to come back.

Another grrr...
We seem to have lost the 'talk' page links from the pedia entirely, but I'm sure everyone's noticed it by now!
And I noticed some requests on the recent changes pages for people NOT to make 'fill in text here' the contents of a page... I just did it by accident and then I couldn't get the page to load to re-edit it. Apparantly when you create a new page by redirecting it creates the page, but instead of sending you to the edit screen it dumped me into the pageview.
The coding for the pedia seems to have suddenly gotten extremely buggy this week - maybe people should be requested to stop playing and adding info until some of these bugs can be fixed? It can't be easy to work on the coding when it keeps getting changed...
