As COT Scholarship lead from 2020 where it was to be use before covid shut wikimania down and now we were preparing to use this tool for wikimania 2023 can it be brought back online as people want us to use the WMF based tool to protect the privacy of applicants with the WMF controls. Our timetable is to open scholarship application is 2 Jan 2023... cheers Gnangarra

It doesn't have to be a smart rename. If we take a fictional language called "Syldavian", with the made-up code syv, it can be something like this:
Incubator stage:
- Create syv.wikipediaincubator.org.
- Ensure that the same default version of core MediaWiki and extensions are loaded and regularly updated in the same train process.
- Ensure that it's connected to the CentralAuth system and can have the same user accounts as en.wikipedia.org, etc.
- Ensure that it can get data from Wikidata and display sitelinks as interlanguage links.
- Ensure that it you can translate articles from Wikipedia in other languages into it using Content Translation (requires some slightly non-trivial changes in the ContentTranslation extension, but definitely doable).
- Ensure that you can use it in Wikipedia Android and iOS apps (this is an actual request from people who write in Incubators in several languages).
- Ensure that the search box works (it's also not obvious and sometimes broken in new projects).
- Ensure that it appears in statistics tools: Pageviews, Wikistats, Turnilo, Superset, etc.

I dont see not allowing IP's as a big issue, especially if we are using a different domain name technically ts easy enough to deny users who arent logged in. Even well meaning experienced contributors can cause significant issues

Suggest the domain be languagecode.wpincubator.org so its clear its not a full functioning wikipedia it would also force the focus to be on one project rather than spread effort to multiple projects

@Aklapper there may be a misundertsanding here, my understanding is QRpedia isnt working, it hasnt been working for over two years, I dont have the knowledge to decide on the nuances of whether its related to the same or different lines of code all I know is its not functioning. the message we get is bad url/url doesnt exist. and we've been getting that for a couple of years.
Thats still open too https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210050 the issue is these arent getting addressed no matter how many tickets get opened... One ticket is easier to follow than 50 when the issues appear to be stemming from the same issue
we are still having issues with apostrophes within a page title not working. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Free_Knowledge_Portal addresses the issue and provides its linking via Wikidata, WMAu has some resources in its new sAPG to help transition qrpedia to Wikidata as the hub where special characters in URL are no longer needed.

There are many ways to have different names, "QWiki club - 26 Feb 19", for the generic non topic specific events, "QWiki club - Andy visit" for guest speaker events, "QWiki club- Cyclones" for topic specific events. Alternative though less helpful for retrieval over time 'Qwiki club - meetup 99".

@ErrantX
