Hello Nicolas,

Som very quick explanations.

> What is [[MediaWiki:Proofreadpage index data config]] and what does it do?

It configures the Index: pages editing form and the transclusion of its 
parameters to the automatic header template. See: 
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Proofread_Page#Configuration for 
technical detail.

If you want we could setup it together. I am going to be busy next week but 
feel free to reach me the week after about it.

Cheers,

Thomas
