@chrisdavidmills We might want to place this link somewhere else, instead of silently dropping it.

| In this lesson we'll look at arrays — a neat way of storing a list of data items under a single variable name. Here we look at why this is useful, then explore how to create an array, retrieve, add, and remove items stored in an array, and more besides. | |||

Use a regular Markdown link; otherwise it adds code formatting (I know you can suppress code formatting but I dislike the 3rd and 4th parameters of jsxref)

Can I ask — where is this particular page structure type defined; where does it specify that it has no "See also" section? Going forward, we want to have "See also" sections on learn web development pages. I agree with removing the "Indexed collections" link, as that's not very helpful to beginners on the learning pathway. I am not so sure about removing the Arrays reference link. We'll have to discuss what we want to do for reference links, but for beginner's tutorials, it is nice to point out what the page is for and what you will find there. But, we'd have to make sure consistent on the learn pages if we do decide to go with that. And as for the Scrimba link — we want to keep that. I've already created a PR that adds guidelines for adding partner links safely without them getting out of control, etc.: #37792 |
No other pages in the section have a see also
At this time, we do not have see also sections, so this can be removed.
This linked video is not a good addition to this page, which is why I didn't add it into the content. I watched it in its entirety. If it needs to be kept for the partnership, maybe it fits somewhere in |
Ooops. Some sections in learn do have see also sections, but not this path. |
Yup, and we want to have more added, in a way that makes sense. I deliberately added the Array link on this page in a way that I thought made sense for beginners. If it is a link at the top of the page somewhere, with no explanation, then it won't make sense to beginners. If we add it as further reading for those who want to find out about more array methods, with some explanation, then there is more change it will make sense.
I think the Scrimba link is useful. One reason we considered adding partner content to learn was to provide non-text equivalents to our walls of text. Learners these days want multiple learning styles, not just text. Exactly how to present See also links like these in the new learn section needs some discussion, and I've added such instances as examples that can be discussed. It is harder to discuss them if you remove them. |
Page type doesn't have see also section. Added one link into the text, and deleted the two others.
