Help panel: create the "More on this feature" page
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

In T209318, we discussed where the "More on this feature" link from this mockup should go. We think we need to create a specific page geared toward explaining the feature to new users, modeled similarly to this page from the Content Translation tool: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation

Trizek-WMF triaged this task as High priority.
Trizek-WMF moved this task from Incoming to In Progress on the Growth-Team (Current Sprint) board.

Just to be sure -- Will that documentation be linked from a different place than the "Know more about that feature" link in the panel, displayed only after the question has been posted?

No, it will appear as a link within the settings cog which can be accessed at any step of the help panel.

@Trizek-WMF -- thank you for making this page. I like the "Tips on how to post a good question" and "Frequently Asked Questions" sections. I've edited your draft to add some more info and rephrase some things. When you're ready, I think we should get it translated. And I think @kostajh can add the link to the code.

One thing I'm not sure about, though, is the links I added and whether those will automatically work in the other wikis. Could you please check to make sure I did that right?

The text can be adapted to the language during the translation process. The idea is to have the links to go to the ressources on a wiki in that language.

I've marked the page for translation accordingly.

The pages has been translated and the deployment done.

MMiller_WMF reassigned this task from Trizek-WMF to kostajh.

Although @Trizek-WMF's work here is complete, I'm re-opening it because we have not yet deployed the link in the help panel for users to click on. Assigning to @kostajh.

This is riding the train and will be in production on Thursday.

The link is present in the cog button options and work as expected.
