Question for @Pginer-WMF could we have the URLs for the pages in the screenshots that we are hoping to link to? That would be super useful!

The options to contribute are expected to be provided by each extension. Based on previous conversations these are expected (using English Wikipedia mobile web as an example domain):

• The "Translations" option will be provided by the Content Translaiton extension and will point to the Content/Section Translation dashboard (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ContentTranslation) maybe with an additional "campaign" parameter to identify this entry point.

• The "Suggested Edits" option will be provided by Growth team and point to the newcomer homepage ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Homepage&namespace=-1#/homepage/suggested-edits ).

• For Campaigns there was interest from the Campaigns team but I'm not sure about the specific url they will have to join and whether they will be providing two separate options (join and organize campaign) or a single one.

• Regarding the more generic options (Upload media and New page) there were some questions on whether to provide them or not. They were originally added as simple options pointing to wanted pages and commons' upload wizard. However, Rita had good points (T286466#7934390) on guidance providing on these tools not being ideal. So we can consider having no defaults and just list what the different extensions provide (considering what to show when the list is empty)

Code is still in a broken state I am working on templating the html, once it is back on track I will do the styling and then look into the tab actions

When a feature flag is enabled on the beta cluster, the Special:Contributions page will show tabs to allow navigation to Special:Contribute

This is the last piece of the puzzle we need.

@santhosh @Pginer-WMF sorry we're running a bit late on this one. The bulk of the work is done.
The Special:Contribute page now exists: https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:Contribute/Jdlrobson
and you can add to the cards via hook using the following code:

$wgHooks['ContributeCards'][] = function ( array &$cards ) {
	$cards[] = ( new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCard(
		'Translation',
		'Translate one section or a whole article. Make more content available in more languages.',
		'language',
		new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCardActionLink(
			SpecialPage::getTitleFor( 'ContentTranslation' )->getLocalUrl(),
			'Start a translation'
		)
	) )->toArray();
	$cards[] = ( new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCard(
		'Suggested edits',
		'Contribute to MediaWiki',
		'lightbulb',
		new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCardActionLink(
			SpecialPage::getTitleFor( 'Homepage' )->getLocalUrl( [ 'namespace' => -1 ] ) . '#/homepage/suggested-edits',
			'View suggested edits'
		)
	) )->toArray();
	$cards[] = ( new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCard(
		'Upload media',
		'Share educational images, videos, and other media files with a free license.',
		'upload',
		new MediaWiki\Specials\Contribute\Card\ContributeCardActionLink(
			SpecialPage::getTitleFor( 'UploadWizard' )->getLocalUrl(),
			'Upload a file'
		)
	) )->toArray();
};

The only thing we still need to do is handle the tab on Special:Contributions. That's taking a little longer given we don't want to surface this page just yet to users.

[mediawiki/extensions/ContentTranslation@master] Add Translation entrypoint in Special:Contribute

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/837634

@Jdlrobson Thanks, this looks great.
I just submitted a patch to add Translations card. Screenshot below:
The ordering of cards looks arbitrary now. Should there be a way to specify the order? For example, what if we want to have 'New page' at top and then 'Translations' after that?

$cards is passed by reference so you don't need to insert at the end of list. You can use wfArrayInsertAfter for example or sort it as needed. This is how we do it for other menus. e.g. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/BetaFeatures/+/86fbc29db8b03e7f08691aa7fd34a0ed652a0a52/includes/Hooks.php#388

I've captured the remaining work into T319240. @Pginer-WMF @santhosh I presume that will leave you unblocked on us? Is there anything else you are expecting from us?

Yes, we are unblocked on this. Thanks.
Is there a ticket to add "Contribute" item in sidebar menu that takes the user to Special:Contribute?

Small clarification: theres is already a Contributions menu. The proposed adjustments would be to show it as "Contribute" (with pencil icon) when there are options to contribute, and include a second line of text surfacing some of those options.
These changes are more to facilitate discovery, so they can be introduced at a later stage if needed. They may be included in T319240 or have a separate ticket as it is more convenient.

@Pginer-WMF I've created T319327 for updating the link. We can coordinate around exactly when we do that - as I presume you don't want to surface this page until you are ready your side.

Thanks a lot for the great work building this @Jdlrobson and @Mabualruz!!
I've also created a follow-up ticket for next steps on the Language side: T319306: Adjust visibility for the option to translate in the Persistent Contribution entry point
