Description

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:SpecialPages#mw-specialpagesgroup-campaignevents

CampaignEvents lists 7 special pages on Special:SpecialPages, but only 2 work by default.

The other five lead to error page, like below, because they require parameter which is impossible to provide from Special:SpecialPages. There's also no way to provide that when we reach the error page, save by manually modifying the URL

They should either be unlisted (I believe they're already accessible via more approproate entry points) or they should provide default input form instead of the error they show.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Keep the special pages as listed
  • If there is no valid id, include the following text: "This page has no valid event ID. Enter a valid event ID or view all events in the Collaboration list."
  • Link "Collaboration list" to Special:AllEvents in the wiki that the user is on

I think it would be nice to leave them in the list but, as you suggest, there should be a way to enter the input if none was specified, à la Special:Permalink.

This is being moved back to Upcoming because this was a "Fix-It" week task, and Fix-It Week is now over. It is not high priority now, since we're focused on wrapping up the 4 improvements to the Collaboration List now as the #1 priority. We can take on this work again soon, most likely, but we need to focus on implementing the improvements first.

Memo for when we finish this: Special:RegisterForEvent still shows the error at the top, before the input. Also, the page uses the campaignevents-edit-no-event-id message instead of campaignevents-register-error-no-event-id, which however lacks a link to the collab list.
