The GettingStarted task order randomization
(
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/49975/) is ready for testing on toro.
When you refresh
http://toro.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:GettingStarted,
the order of the three task categories will be randomized.
This works by using three MediaWiki messages, which currently delegate
to templates.
MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-1 - Template:Gettingstarted copyediting
MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-2 - Template:Gettingstarted clarification
MediaWiki:gettingstarted-task-3 - Template:Gettingstarted adding links
Note, it is a known issue that the clarification message shows the
message keys when you click that question mark.
