Description

URLs like ​https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/cats/ should feature a canonical URL tag.

Note that the canonical URL value should include pagination when present. e.g:

-​https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/cats/page/2/?someVar=true should have a canonical URL tag of https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/cats/page/2/.

-​https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/network-shared-media/active/ should have a canonical URL tag of https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/network-shared-media/active/.
