759356 - Change links to highlighted wiki pages to point at Kuma equivalents

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Wiki pages, defect, P1)

Description

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

On the front page and in the top nav, there are lots of links to wiki pages (eg. HTML, CSS, DOM, Canvas, etc). 

These point to MindTouch URLs and use the devmo_url() helper, which will stop consulting MindTouch for localization advice once bug 757940 is implemented.

So, go through the site, find links to MindTouch wiki pages, change them to use Kuma equivalents. Since we should be supporting redirects, we might be able to get by without changing paths - though we really should, and maybe even use the Django/Jinja url() helper. The devmo_url helper will definitely not do the right thing any more.

This PR might have a partial fix for this in the devmo_url() helper:

reopening to remind us to restore the url changes made in https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/commit/0cccdf1b2a1c58ea4ab690a17e48e85af4eb60a2 after we disable MindTouch to avoid the redirect response.

I think Luke mentioned that the only downside of not doing this is that the links will redirect to the correct pages, rather than linking to them correctly. If that's the case, I think we can push this one off until after launch.
