Description

First pass on the Getting Started glossary for English and Russian.

The page was already a starting point for translators, but many entries were missing, Plugin sat out of alphabetical order, several “See more” links were wrong or thin, the Russian Chunk section was empty, and Core Workspace still described multi-workspace Manager UI that never shipped as a daily workflow.

This pass:

  • Puts EN entries back in A–Z order (Plugin before Property/Resource)
  • Adds cross-links between terms on the same page (Resource, Container, Parent/Child, Media Browser synonyms, TV → Template Variables, and similar)
  • Points terms at real docs pages (Chunks, Templates, Processors, Friendly URLs, FormIt hooks, settings for request params and use_weblink_target, and others)
  • Adds high-value missing terms from the issue list (Authentication, User, Database, Cookie, Container, Media Browser / File Manager, Processor, Hooks, Lexicon Management, Error log, Static Element, Template, URI, request alias/id parameters, Weblink target via use_weblink_target, and more)
  • Syncs the Russian glossary: same ideas, Cyrillic order, filled Chunk entry, fixed broken Snippet-tag link

Still out of scope for this PR (leave #307 open or follow up):

  • Capitalizing MODX terms across the whole documentation tree (item 6 in the issue)
  • Fringe glossary entries (SPF, DMARC, cURL, HTML form controls)
  • Dedicated Media Browser / File Manager how-to page (glossary only points at Media Sources for now)

Checked against Revolution 3.x concepts (Media Browser widget, processors/connectors, use_weblink_target, request param settings).

Affected versions

3.x (glossary docs). Concepts match current Revolution Manager behavior. 2.x readers can still use most definitions.

First pass for issue modxorg#307: restore alphabetical order, add missing core
terms and synonyms, link entries to docs and to each other, fill the
empty Russian Chunk entry, and drop speculative multi-workspace wording.
