Organize existing PAWS documentation
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

There are many pages/locations of PAWS documentation listed at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/PAWS#Documentation some of which needs to be merged or updated.
There are 2 related ideas that need to be kept in mind:

The existing documentation should be organized and centralized, in order to make information easier to find, with the future improvements to the tool's own interface as part of the planning.

Event Timeline

My main concern in writing this task, are the outdated details (and split talkpage feedback) of the Old Notes at mediawikiwiki. I hope someone who understands the tool well, can merge that page into the wikitech pages (or propose a better alternative plan).

Possibly the content currently in the wikitech Introduction page should appear within the root page? But the 2 other tasks in description also need to be taken into account.

For now, I've added the missing links that I could find, to the section linked in the description.
I've also mocked up a potential navbox https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:PAWS but I suspect some of those links aren't worth including in a navbox (e.g. the SAL links).

I recently created this ticket: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T253761

Wondering if we should merge these?

Please do! (I don't have time to check for any content that doesn't already exist there, so please just copy whatever is needed across :) )
