Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):

Reconsider the existing location of the special pages link. It's currently in page tools with other links that are associated with the page, however this link has nothing to do with the page.
This was pointed out by @IKhitron
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop_Improvements&oldid=5850154#Special_pages_link

One possible option would be to move it to the main menu.

Benefits (why should this be implemented?):

This would hopefully make it clearer what these links are for and how they relate to the content or the site.

Acceptance criteria

Ensure communities are informed by upcoming change prior to deploying
