Mentorship: If Mentorship is not turned on, then a warning should display on Special:ManageMentors
Open, MediumPublic

Description

User story:

As a community members setting up Mentorship, I want to understand that the existence of a Mentor list (visible on Special:ManageMentors) doesn't mean that Mentorship is enabled on my wiki, because then I'll understand what I need to do to enable Mentorship.

Background:

Found in this discussion: is seems that if you create a list of mentors, but don't turn mentorship on in community configuration, you get access to a list of mentees assigned to you.

Instead, you should have a message instead of the list of mentors, saying "turn mentorship on in CC".

that list of mentees causes several issues:

  • mentors have no idea that the system is not working
  • mentees have no idea that they have a mentor, and can't ask them questions
  • mentees have no idea that someone exists
    • their mentor can see their edits without knowing it (hence no way to opt-out)
    • their mentor can come and say "I'm your mentor" and they could be surprised.

(using Message component in variant 'Warning').

Acceptance Criteria:

Given I'm on a wiki that doesn't have Mentorship enabled,
When I view Special:ManageMentors,
Then there should be a warning message on the page that clarifies:

⚠️ Mentorship is currently turned off. Admins can turn on Mentorship via Special:CommunityConfiguration.

@Trizek-WMF does this sound like the right Acceptance Criteria?

(Copy TBD, but something like that)

hi all! commenting the mock-up for this task. I slightly changed the language, from 'disabled/enabled' to 'turned off/turned on'. I will update the task, but feel free to disagree to my suggestion.
