Description

As followup to T414987: Review/update copy and internationalisation (i18n) of all check/suggestion types please amend the default URLs to include the precise #sub-section anchor and the Special:MyLanguage/ string. I.e.

Instead of all using //www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Suggestion_mode
they should use:

type	link
convertReference	`//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#Convert_reference`
disambiguation	`//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#Disambiguation_links`
duplicateLink	`//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#Duplicate_links`
externalLink	(1) `//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#External_links` (2) `//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#External_links`
headingLevels	`//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#Heading_levels`
imageCaption	`//www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion_Mode#Image_caption_missing`
