Another piece of feedback from the CZI EOSS kickoff meeting that @WillAyd and I attended:

The current https://pandas.io/ home page has 2 Getting started links:

The upper right one in the top ribbon leads to https://pandas.io/getting_started.html The bottom left one leads to https://pandas.io/docs/getting_started/index.html

People found it confusing that they linked to different pages and did not completely contain the same information. From a user experience perspective, it would be great to have these point to the same page, especially since both pages essentially have the same information.

Comment From: ShaharNaveh

Just for clarification which link is the "correct" link to point to?

should both upper and the bottom links redirect to https://pandas.io/getting_started.html or to https://pandas.io/docs/getting_started/index.html?

Comment From: mroeschke

Probably up for discussion, but I'd prefer https://pandas.io/docs/getting_started/index.html

Comment From: afeld

I suggest merging https://pandas.pydata.org/getting_started.html into 10 minutes to pandas, since the latter doesn't actually say how to get pandas.

Comment From: gustavocmaciel

It would be nice if 10 minutes to pandas had installation instructions. But after that, which Getting started link should be updated then?

Another idea would be renaming one of those Getting started links to something else, it could be renamed to 10 Minutes to Pandas, for example, so there would be no problem if they point to different pages.

Updated suggestion:

There are already installation instructions under https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/getting_started/index.html. I suggest moving 10 Minutes to Pandas into the Getting Started section of the docs, under Package overview. This would essentially put it "earlier" in the navigation, for someone moving left to right in the navigation bar. I'd just get rid of the content at https://pandas.pydata.org/getting_started.html and have it redirect to https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/getting_started/index.html, as all that content is already covered elsewhere.

P.S. This is my first pull request in real OS project. I will appreciate your valuable feedback.

I was hoping someone could review my PR as it might potentially close this PR.

Comment From: SouravPal1995

I have created my first PR and it has been reviewed by one maintainer. I am not sure where to go from here. Could somebody please help me out here. I am a bit stuck 🙏

Comment From: SouravPal1995

I Just noticed a few moments ago that the Install Pandas Now button also leads to the getting_started.html. Should we redirect this one as well?

is the issue still open ?

I had an idea.....Why not just change the url link of the getting start of the task bar. It is opening the installation process instead of getting started page ?

Based on the discussions & comments on PR - I would like to summarize this & get a final alignment & then probably start working on it

Summary - "https://pandas.pydata.org/" - has two Getting Started options - leading to different links -

https://pandas.pydata.org/getting_started.html

and https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/getting_started/index.html

Based on comments on the initial PR - Removing the "https://pandas.pydata.org/getting_started.html" is not a good idea as it provides a good starting point .. The above comments from @afeld are to use 10 minutes to Pandas in the navigation - I am not super clear on the placement though @afeld @datapythonista @rhshadrach - Please share your comments/ views

Comment From: afeld

Sorry everyone for my horribly mixed responsiveness. Thanks @palbha for the summary.

Please forget what I said about merging into the 10 minutes to pandas page. My revised proposal is to merge https://pandas.pydata.org/getting_started.html into https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/getting_started/index.html, ensuring the former URL redirects.

Thumbs 👍/👎 on this comment with your thoughts, I suppose?
