Description Amir E. Aharoni 2012-05-23 12:31:38 UTC
There are some messages in PageTriage tag descriptions, which explain the problem with the page.

Such messages are frequently customized on the projects, because local admins add links to the relevant policy pages. Obviously, the titles would be different in every project. The simplest solution would be to create generic policy page names, that the projects would be able to create and redirect to the real pages, although something more clever can be done, too.
Comment 1 Amir E. Aharoni 2012-05-23 12:32:38 UTC
Examples of messages that need this treatment are
* pagetriage-tags-externallinks-desc
* pagetriage-tags-refimprove-desc

There are more.

Thanks, Amir. This seems like a reasonable request and I will discuss it with the development team to see how they think we can address it.

It may be possible to place a link under the name of the tag that would open the relevant policy page in a separate window.
