Hi, I'm part of the MDN team. That doesn’t sound quite right, MDN has never replaced example links with AI-generated answers. While we’ve introduced an AI-powered helper to assist with common questions, it’s a supplementary tool, not part of our core documentation experience.
All MDN content remains human-written, maintained by our team and contributors, and based on real browser implementations. You can always view the source and track changes on our GitHub repository for content.

Hey, we try to maintain attribution from our wiki setup, still. Our contributors are of the utmost importance to us, and if you can tell me about the page you contributed to, I can share more.
Here's a wikihistory for the lexical grammar page → https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...

A community member made the mdn.io/array redirect, could be useful for you! ;)

Thanks so much for sharing this — and for taking the time to raise those issues back then! <3
You're absolutely right that the old `mdn/sprints` repo is no longer the active channel for suggesting or discussing content changes. These days, we encourage folks to file issues directly in the mdn/content¹ GitHub repository. That’s where all our documentation now lives, and it’s actively maintained by MDN staff and contributors.
If you spot inaccuracies, outdated examples, or unclear distinctions on any page, we now have a way to report straight from the page, you can find this at the bottom of every page → "Report a problem with this content." Please feel free to open an issue² or even suggest edits directly via pull request. We also try to prioritize fixes based on how widely used or confusing a topic might be, so calling attention to edge cases or under-documented differences is genuinely helpful.
Let me know if you’d like help filing an issue or want to connect with the folks maintaining a specific area of the docs. We’d love to have you involved again!

Hi, I'm part of the MDN team. Thank you so much for your feedback, I'll be sure to share this with the team, and we’ll explore how we can build on it further.
Re: “Who is this for?” Most of our reference pages are grounded in real-world browser implementations. Rather than documenting specs in isolation, we focus on features that have been implemented across browsers. We aim to present this information in a clear, neutral way, accessible to developers at any stage of their journey.
That said, we have expanded our efforts to create more learning-focused content, free resources designed to support new developers through a structured curriculum. Additionally, we’ve started publishing more in-depth guides on niche topics on our blog, which complements our core documentation but serves a slightly different purpose from what you mentioned.
