Research direction
Open the Troubleshooting Wiki page and locate the Installation Issues or macOS section, especially the “Command cc failed with exit status 1” entry. Replace the broken Pillow issue link with the official Pillow installation documentation URL provided in the issue. Done means the wiki link opens successfully and points to the building-from-source guidance.

Description
Describe the bug
The Troubleshooting Wiki page contains a broken reference for resolving Pillow/zlib installation errors.
Location: > Wiki Page: Troubleshooting
Section: Installation Issues (or macOS specific section)
Broken Link: https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/3438
Proposed Fix:
Update the Wiki link to point to the official Pillow documentation: https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html#building-from-source
I would like to be assigned this to update the Wiki.
URL of the page where the issue is observed.

Steps To Reproduce
Navigate to the Oppia GitHub home page.
On the top bar of sections, navigate to Wiki.
Scroll down to the "MacOS" section or click on the link at the top of the page Command cc failed with exit status 1
Locate and click the link under the reference: https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/3438.
Observe that GitHub displays a "404 Not Found" page.

Expected Behaviour:
The link on the Troubleshooting wiki page should direct the user to a valid, official resource for resolving Pillow and zlib installation dependencies. This ensures that new developers, particularly those on macOS, can successfully complete their local environment setup without encountering broken documentation.
