735888 - wiki testday: migrate non-English pages' English equivalents as "parents"

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Editing, defect)

Description

[Luke Crouch [:groovecoder]]

In Kuma, translation features are driven by the Document.parent relationship.

When migrating non-English pages, we should migrate or update the English equivalent page as the parent of the non-English page.

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

We've discussed this before, and it's probably not entirely feasible by automatic means. That's why I've mentioned that we should give users the ability to manually associate pages by their translation relationship.

The only data available for migrating this are the `wiki.languages` template calls, which look like this:

{{ wiki.languages( { "es": "es/CSS/Transiciones_de_CSS", "ja": "ja/CSS/CSS_transitions" } ) }}

We *might* be able to parse those to get hints and set up some of the parent / child relationships. However, these are manually-inserted template calls and are not exhaustive. 

Maybe that will be a good-enough result - though we will need the ability to manually edit relationships going forward.

I also don't think this migration is a blocker on translation features. They can be implemented in parallel.
