Description

Translation debugger with
URL does not seem to be a formally documented in Mediawiki Content Tranlation page

I came to know about it only through Phabricator when I encounted problem with Content Translation tool and reported it.

I found this tool highly useful to get the statistics of machine translation statistics and also to improve the translated pages.

This needs to be a formal feature of Content Translation with inputs as arguments on the URL and also documented on Mediawiki Content Translation pages.

It is great to see that the tool is providing useful information. This is more of a supporting tool so we are considering improvements only when they are needed to improve Content Translation. Do not hesitate to share any feedback on how we can improve the tool, but it may take some time until we can focus on those.

For now, I mentioned the tool in the documentation page and included a video with an example in order to make it more discoverable to those interested.

Another change related to this is to provide the tool with a more general url.
With the documentation and this, I think we can complete a first iteration of making the tool more of a formal feature and resolve the ticket for now.
Please let us know if there are other specific places where it would be convenient for finding the tool, and we'll consider how to expose the tool as it becomes more solid (keeping in mind it is still a bit of a side-project in support of our main focus)
