----------------------------------
Summary: Contributor docs link to dead pages and describe a stale
workflow
Key: SOLR-18577
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-18577
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Nick Shanin
🤖 _AI text below_ 🤖 _(posted on behalf of Nick Shanin)_
The contributor-facing docs ({{CONTRIBUTING.md}}, {{README.md}}, the dev-docs
guides, the packaging README, and the admin UI page) contain seven dead
references:
* The Slack sign-up address {{https://s.apache.org/solr-slack}} in four
places; its invite service has shut down and the page answers 404.
* {{https://solr.apache.org/solr}} in the packaging README (404).
* A personal page cited by the contributor guide for not emailing committers
directly (404).
* The {{help/}} directory in this repository, which no longer exists.
* {{https://reference.apache.org/committer/github}} in the PMC chair guide
(redirects to a page answering 404).
* The git.or.cz crash course in the Git guide (403).
* The {{https://s.apache.org/Mfu2}} shortlink in the RelatednessAgg javadoc
(target answers 400).
The same docs also carry stale workflow statements: the changelog guide gives
the fragment folder as {{solr/changelog/unreleased/}} when fragments live in
{{changelog/unreleased/}} at the repository root; the JVM guide's example uses
a JDK 14 install when the build's minimum is Java 21; the FAQ says Error Prone
runs on Jenkins and describes Sonatype Lift as reviewing pull requests; two
pages point at the removed {{help/}} directory for the Gradle help texts, which
live in {{dev-docs/gradle-help/}}.
A pull request fixing the links and the stale statements is ready to open
against this ticket.
