The Welcome survey page doesn't display links to non-existing pages in red
Interesting that instead of the incorrect link reported in the task - https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedie:Tutorial&source=survey - I got another incorrect link: https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipédia:Tutoriel&source=survey
I checked - ruwiki, 'ukwiki`, kowiki and plwiki - the links seem to be ok.
hewiki has one non-existing link for Tutorial - https://he.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ויקיפדיה:Tutorial&source=survey
<ul class="welcomesurvey-gettingstarted-links"><li class="mw-parser-output"><a href="/w/index.php?title=%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%93%D7%99%D7%94:Tutorial&source=survey" target="_blank" class="external">Tutorial</a></li> //the page doesn't exist <li class="mw-parser-output"><a href="/w/index.php?title=%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%D7%99%D7%A4%D7%93%D7%99%D7%94:Help_desk&source=survey" target="_blank" class="external">Help Desk</a></li></ul> //the page exists
The frwiki help desk is plain untranslated:
- https://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcomesurvey-sidebar-editing-link2-title/fr
- https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcomesurvey-sidebar-editing-link2-title
The others work when the user language matches the content language. Should we set these messages to use content language? That would make them point to the right place when a different user language is set, but would make it impossible to have links to different pages in different languages.
So it seems only frwiki problem? I re-checked cswiki and hewiki - yes, the links seem to be correctly re-directing to the help desk/tutorial pages.
Just in case - here is how I check;
- log in
- add Special:WelcomeSurvey?_group=exp2_target_specialpage to the url
- and click on the links - Tutorial and Help desk in Getting started with editing module
Per Slack discussion, this doesn't really need fixing - new users are extremely unlikely to see Special:WelcomeSurvey in anything other than the content language.
