Hi Steven,

I see that GettingStarted and GuidedTours are enabled on wikis mentioned
here https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/111460/ but they are not working on
elwiki (not reported on Special:Version).
Also, although GuidedTours are working on the rest of the wikis I try to
visit Special:GettingStarted and there is "no such special page" even in
enwiki, although I see edits tagged as made through the system.
Am I missing something, or it should be reported on bugzilla?
