Else tests like A1 and A2 will produce different results, as the first letter won't be capitalized automatically. You can still use these tests, but you will have to carefully evaluate the results yourself, as some of the instructions will not be applicable. Tests should be done with FlexForm extension setting create-seo-titles set to true as well as false. Note that create-seo-titles is only applied to input from formfields that is inserted in mwwrite of a create, not to hardcoded values in mwwrite. Therefore most of these tests (except for D) should have the same results with create-seo-titles set to true or false. To execute the tests, copy the content shown below to a page on your wiki. The content contains test instructions as well as forms to test different _create options. After you finish testing, delete the created test pages. You can for example find these in your contributions or use the Semantic MediaWiki query to get a list of pages and delete them through Special:DeleteBatch. A. next_available test Test each create multiple times Verify that the created page gets a new number each time, i.e. "Test page1" then "Test page2" then "Test page3" etc. Tests A1, A2, A3, A4 and A6 (with namespace option "(Main)") should result in similar pagetitles note: with create-seo-titles set to true, A4 will produce a different pagetitle, for example "Test-page1" Tests A5 and A6 (with namespace options "template" and "Template") should result in similar pagetitles note: you might see "Template" in the created page in a different language, if your user preference is set to a language other than English A1.

Tests B1, B2, B3 and B5 (with namespace option "(Main)") should result in similar pagetitles Tests B4 and B5 (with namespace options "template" and "Template") should result in similar pagetitles note: you might see "Template" in the created page in a different language, if your user preference is set to a language other than English B1.
