-## Moving docs to a new location?
-
-Read the guidelines:
-https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/#changing-document-location
-
-- [ ] Make sure the old link is not removed and has its contents replaced with
- a link to the new location.
-- [ ] Make sure internal links pointing to the document in question are not broken.
-- [ ] Search and replace any links referring to the old docs in the GitLab Rails app,
- specifically under the `app/views/` and `ee/app/views` (for GitLab EE) directories.
-- [ ] Make sure to add [`redirect_from`](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/index.html#redirections-for-pages-with-disqus-comments)
- to the new document if there are any Disqus comments on the old document thread.
-- [ ] If working on CE and the `ee-compat-check` jobs fails, [submit an MR to EE
- with the changes](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/index.html#cherry-picking-from-ce-to-ee) as well.
-- [ ] Ping one of the technical writers for review.

+- [ ] [Port the MR to EE (or backport from CE)](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/index.html#cherry-picking-from-ce-to-ee): _always recommended, required when the `ee-compat-check` job fails_
