Description
While in Tools > Site Health today, I saw a notification that I needed to install the imagick PHP extension on my server. It then prompted me to follow this link: https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/handbook/handbook/server-environment/#php-extensions.
First off, this section is very helpful! One thing I'd like to update is the wording for the imagick bullet. Currently it says:
imagick – Provides better image quality for media uploads. See WP_Image_Editor is incoming! (links to https://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/12/06/wp_image_editor-is-incoming/) for details. Smarter image resizing (for smaller images) and PDF thumbnail support, when Ghost Script is also available.
This links to an old post about the introduction of the WP Image Editor. I propose replacing this wording with one of the following:
imagick – Provides better image quality for media uploads.
OR
imagick – Provides better image quality for media uploads. For more information, see the code reference for the WP_Image_Editor (hyperlink to https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_image_editor/).
