I propose to change some items from the crowded MediaWiki:Sidebar on mediawiki.org. Because it's crowded.
- Remove "Main page" - already reachable by clicking the logo above.
- Rename "Get MediaWiki" to "Install MediaWiki" and link to Manual:Installing MediaWiki instead which covers all steps (including downloading and additional extensions).
- Remove "Get extensions" - is an overwhelming unhelpful page and installing extensions is another optional part of Manual:Installing MediaWiki already.
- Remove "Tech blog" - already linked from Communication.
- Add "Recent news" - linking to News.
- Rename "Communication" to "Get help and support".
- Remove "Support desk" - linked as the first item from Communication already.
- Remove "Code statistics" - not a common enough use case to justify having this clutter the sidebar.
- Remove "Community portal" - all its content is already covered by several other sidebar items.
- Remove "Translate content" - linked How to contribute already links to Special:LanguageStats.
- Remove "Create a book" - it is uncommon and disabled functionality.
- Remove "Printable version" - already available via any browser by selecting "File 🡒 Print" or pressing Ctrl+P in the browser.
Thoughts?
