Thread:Project:Support desk/Is there a test file upload location on mediawiki.org?

I have written a bot for converting ms word files to mediawiki. It's employing api.php. I have tested the code successfully on our wiki, but I'd like to expand it so it can be used for any mediawiki with the right configuration. I was able to convert a file to a mediawiki.org page already, but I encountered two minor problems:
 * When trying to use the Sandbox as a test location, I'm getting a "need protect rights to edit this page" error in my webresponse. As I said, I was able to post to some other pages, including my user page.
 * Is there a location where I could test the file upload feature of my converter? I use that part for graphics inside the document and the document itself. Of course I wouldn't like to spam mediawiki with lots of unused files, so is there a location that gets deleted regularly, analogous to the Sandbox?

Cheers,
