Add links on mediawiki.org's Manual pages to their corresponding classes on doc.wikimedia.org [G-N]
Our Manual code pages on www.mediawiki.org are often outdated whilst the information on doc.wikimedia.org is more up to date. This task is not too exciting. :)
- Make sure you have registered an account on mediawiki.org and make sure that you are logged in.
- Read and understand Template:Outdated - you can for example try it out on your personal wiki user page (replace "XYZ" in that link by your actual username). Also see more information on templates
- From the list of pages, pick 15 pages between "G" and "N".
- For each page on mediawiki.org, find the corresponding page on doc.wikimedia.org: Use the search bar to find the relevant class.
- Check if the mediawiki.org page says different things than the page on doc.wikimedia.org. If it does, continue:
- On the mediawiki.org page, add the {{TNT|Outdated}} template on top of each page.
- The template should use the "reason" parameter: "For more complete information on current code, please refer to corresponding class/file". Make "corresponding class/file" actually link to the corresponding page on doc.wikimedia.org & use proper wikitext markup for that link.
- Use the "Preview" functionality to see if all works as expected. Set a proper change summary like "Mark as outdated and link to corresponding page on doc.wikimedia.org".
- Once you are done with finding & updating 15 pages, in this GCI task, link to your User contributions (replace "XYZ" in that link by your actual username). Thanks for helping to keep our developer docs more up-to-date!
