D7 token upgrade and handbook information is missing

I just ported a module that uses hook_tokens() and family, and found that there's only a sideways glance to it in the Converting 6.x to 7.x page, and in addition, there's no real handbook or how-to information anywhere that I can find.

I propose these things:

    Given that Drupal 7 has reached its End Of Life → , this issue should be closed.

    Please upgrade to a supported version and feel free to reopen the issue on the new version if applicable.

    Thanks for all the hard work you've done in documenting Tokens for D7!
    Even now in 2025 I reckon that the Token subsystem could really use some work on the documentation front, especially given the new documentation structure on drupal.org. I'm interested in trying to figure out how to improve it, and might give it some thought before opening up a new issue focusing on D11+.
