Summary

Completes the cleanup step from #126. Developer instructions for QuantEcon.py and QuantEcon.jl were already migrated to the respective project repositories (QuantEcon.py#740). This PR removes the now-redundant pages from the website.

Deleted pages

All 7 pages had menu_item: false and were not in the site navigation:

File URL
pages/python-developers.md /python-developers/
pages/julia-developers.md /julia-developers/
pages/developer-resources.md /developer-resources/
pages/wiki.md /wiki/
pages/wiki-py-conda-dev-env.md /wiki-py-conda-dev-env/
pages/wiki-py-docstrings.md /wiki-py-docstrings/
pages/wiki-py-unit-testing.md /wiki-py-unit-testing/

Updated links

The "Contribute" buttons on the code library pages previously linked to the now-deleted internal pages. They now point at the rendered contributing guides in each project's documentation (neither repo has a root CONTRIBUTING.md):

  • pages/quantecon-py.md, pages/quantecon-py-wasm.mdhttps://quanteconpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html
  • pages/quantecon-jl.mdhttps://quantecon.github.io/QuantEcon.jl/latest/man/contributing.html

Verified

  • bundle exec jekyll build passes cleanly with no broken references

Closes #126

Developer instructions for QuantEcon.py and QuantEcon.jl have been
migrated to the respective project repositories (see QuantEcon.py#740).
This removes the now-redundant pages from the website and updates the
'Contribute' buttons to link directly to the CONTRIBUTING.md in each
project repo.

Deleted pages (all had menu_item: false, none in nav):
- pages/python-developers.md  (/python-developers/)
- pages/julia-developers.md   (/julia-developers/)
- pages/developer-resources.md (/developer-resources/)
- pages/wiki.md               (/wiki/)
- pages/wiki-py-conda-dev-env.md
- pages/wiki-py-docstrings.md
- pages/wiki-py-unit-testing.md

Updated inbound links:
- quantecon-py.md: Contribute button → QuantEcon.py CONTRIBUTING.md
- quantecon-jl.md: Contribute button → QuantEcon.jl CONTRIBUTING.md

Closes #126

The wasm library page still pointed at the deleted /python-developers
page. Point it at QuantEcon.py's CONTRIBUTING.md (the wasm repo has no
CONTRIBUTING.md of its own), matching the other library pages.

Neither QuantEcon.py nor QuantEcon.jl has a root CONTRIBUTING.md, so
the previous GitHub blob links 404'd. Link the rendered documentation
pages instead:

- QuantEcon.py / QuantEcon.py-wasm -> quanteconpy.readthedocs.io contributing page
- QuantEcon.jl -> QuantEcon.jl docs contributing page

Review before merge caught that neither QuantEcon.py nor QuantEcon.jl actually has a root CONTRIBUTING.md — the Contribute links added here were 404s. Fixed in b487292 by linking the rendered contributing docs instead: quanteconpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html (py + wasm) and quantecon.github.io/QuantEcon.jl/latest/man/contributing.html (jl). Both verified 200.

* feat: redirect removed developer pages instead of 404ing

The 7 developer instruction pages removed in #201 had been live for
years, so their URLs are in search indexes and linked from old forum
posts and project docs. Restore each URL as a redirect_to stub pointing
at where the content lives now:

- /python-developers/, /wiki/ -> QuantEcon.py rendered contributing guide
- /wiki-py-conda-dev-env|docstrings|unit-testing/ -> matching section
  anchors on that guide
- /julia-developers/ -> QuantEcon.jl rendered contributing guide
- /developer-resources/ -> /code/ (the site's libraries hub)

* fix: use relative redirect_to for internal /code/ target

jekyll-redirect-from absolutizes it via site.url at build time, so the
emitted HTML is unchanged; the source now matches the PR description's
redirect map.
