Technical Writing entry in groups does not display the same information as it did pre-migration
Problem description:
Pre-migration, the Product sections, stages, groups, and categories page displayed the content of tech_writer
from the https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/blob/master/data/stages.yml file. The tech_writer
entry can contain the name of one or two named technical writers, or it contains "#docs Slack channel"
.
Post-migration, the Product sections, stages, groups, and categories page only displays content in the Technical Writing row of the group tables when there is a name of a technical writer in the tech_writer
entry of the https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/blob/master/data/stages.yml file. It seems that it ignores the "#docs Slack channel"
entry. This results in confusion for groups when they are trying to understand who to assign Technical Writing MRs to.
Related Slack thread discussion.
Expected behavior:
The group tables show the "#docs Slack channel"
entry when it is present in the yml file.
Examples:
Static Analysis is correct, it has an assigned Technical Writer, and Russell is displayed in the table:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/blob/master/data/stages.yml#L1020
Vulnerability Research group uses the docs Slack channel for Technical Writing reviews. I was expecting to see a Technical Writing entry that says "docs Slack Channel", but there is no Technical Writing row where I am expecting to see it:
