docs(contrib): update links to current URLs

Open agilgur5 opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

Summary

Several of the links in the CONTRIBUTING.md were either redirecting, pointing to archived content, or pointing to no longer existing content

Details

Specific changes:

  • https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org URLs -> https://jenkins.io URLs
    • https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/contributing was effectively 404'ing by redirecting to a Google search; https://www.jenkins.io/participate/ seems like the equivalent new URL
  • https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/* -> https://issues.jenkins.io/*
  • fix grammar to use "the" when referring to a specific place/noun

Misc Notes

I was reading through the Contributing guidelines before submitting https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-plugin/pull/404 and noticed some broken links and other issues in this docs page, so thought I'd fix and improve them while I'm here

Testing done

  • [n/a] Link to relevant pull requests, esp. upstream and downstream changes
  • [n/a] Ensure you have provided tests - that demonstrates feature works or fixes the issue
