#8197: Tooltip formatting issues in WP-CLI Handbook (missing link and extra
period)

 **Describe the current, buggy behavior**

 There are tooltip formatting and linking issues in the WP-CLI Handbook
 documentation pages.

 1. On the handbook page, the **tooltip for “plugin” does not contain a
 link** when hovering over the word.
 2. On some pages, the tooltip text includes an **extra period (.) at the
 end**, which looks like a formatting mistake.

 These issues affect the readability and consistency of the documentation.

 Affected pages:

 *
 [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/)
 *
 [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/installing/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/installing/)
 * [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/quick-
 start/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/quick-start/)

 **Describe how other contributors can replicate this bug**

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Go to the WP-CLI handbook page:
 [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/)
 2. Hover over the **“plugin”** word.
 3. Notice that the tooltip appears but **no link is attached**.

 Additional issues:

 1. Go to:
 [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/installing/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/installing/)
 2. Hover over **“php”**.
 3. The tooltip shows **an extra period (.) at the end**.

 Another example:

 1. Go to:
    [https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/quick-
 start/](https://make.wordpress.org/cli/handbook/guides/quick-start/)
 2. Hover over **“multisite”**.
 3. The tooltip text contains **an unnecessary extra period (.)**.

 **Describe what you would expect as the correct outcome**

 * The tooltip for **“plugin”** should contain the correct reference link
 if it is meant to link to plugin documentation.
 * Tooltip text should **not include unnecessary extra punctuation**, such
 as an extra period (`.`).
 * Tooltip formatting should remain **consistent across the handbook
 documentation**.

 **Provide a possible solution**

 * Check the glossary or tooltip configuration used in the WP-CLI handbook.
 * Ensure the **“plugin” term has the correct link reference attached**.
 * Remove the **extra period (`.`)** from tooltip definitions for terms
 like `php` and `multisite`.

 **Provide additional context/Screenshots**

 Screenshots showing the tooltip issues can help illustrate the problem.
