I could try to do that.  But I need specifics.

Is the only thing that needs to be changed is the link (and supporting text around the link, if necessary)? 

Should the link go to https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/issues, or directly to open a new Issue form?

Of course I'll list every change for translators and send it to you :-)

I'm probably not the best person to update the wiki.  I'm not very familiar with it.

I think it's probably FAQ, the bug report page, contribute testing, and develop pages. Then there must also be some Wiki pages. I'm currently a bit busy with other stuff, so I'd appreciate if someone gave me a list with links + screenshots or similar. Or, if someone updated the pages, that would be cool - but then I'd still need a list (preferably with screenshots), for being able to notify translators.

If either 0.92.4 or 1.0 alpha is about to be released, can't the edits just say 'from now on'?   (Not really "from now on" specifically, but in effect it would be - here's where new bug reports go now.) Because users wouldn't be reporting bugs for 0.92.3 or older, after 0.92.4 is released, would they?

However, for that we still need a reply from Bryce about the Inkscape version that applies to. Wait for that before you start, please. I can see why he said 0.92.4 and higher - because that's what is currently under development. I don't know what Marc's rationale is for only intending to do this for alpha and higher.

I've done some minor edits to simplify / clarify (among others I tried to give a short explanation on why there are two trackers but without getting too verbose). Feel free to cross-check and iterate! I guess we might want to include a link to the guide on how to migrate a bug once it's ready in the relevant line? (I think Chris was preparing one?)

As a general note I'm afraid some users were lazy and didn't check properly for duplicates before. Having two trackers will likely not make that any more probable.

Even for everybody else it obviously involves additional effort. As I don't see a way to "solve" this (short of nuking or completely disregarding the old tracker)
