Perhaps we could set one up on Wikia?

Thanks, Emufarmers. I don't own wiki.lspace.org, I'm just a user. I don't really own any wikis or server space. I tried setting up a MediaWiki on awardspace.com (free webspace like geocities/tripod/etc), but it's so slow + works so poorly that I can't really use it for testing.
Thanks also to Ittay for answering my earlier "Annotating a protected document on a per-user, per-section basis" question. Since I don't own wiki.lspace.org, I can't install my own extensions. The wiki owner might install any "standard" extension on request, but probably won't install anything experimental.

You could set up such a test wiki pretty easily: Just set it up on a separate webspace from your main one (testwiki.lspace.org, or whatever),
and
add: $wgGroupPermissions['user']['protect'] = true; To LocalSettings.php. Then users could protect and unprotect pages when logged in, and log out to see how they would be without the protection permission.

Thanks to everyone who's been helping.
As I get closer to my goal, I have some more complex questions regarding templates, protected pages, transclusions, pre-loading, etc.
It would be really useful to have a "test wiki" I could point people to to show them what I've done so far, and why it doesn't work.
Ideally, this would be one where any registered user could protect/unprotect pages (of course, giving any user the power to protect/unprotect pages makes protection meaningless, but this would be more to experiment with protected pages, not actually protect them).
Is there such a "test wiki" out there?
I realize I could create test pages and even templates on ANY wiki (even mediawiki.org or wikipedia.org), but it would be wrong to
