Description

What is the documentation issue?

Page router docs miss info on how to upgrade from v14 to v 15
https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/upgrading

Is there any context that might help us understand?

App router has a dedicated page
https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/upgrading/version-15
Page router should have the same
This prevents people using page router from upgrading to the new version

Does the docs page already exist? Please link to it.

Research direction

Start with the existing Pages Router upgrading page at /docs/pages/building-your-application/upgrading and compare it with the App Router v15 guide at /docs/app/building-your-application/upgrading/version-15. Add equivalent v14-to-v15 guidance for Page Router users, and confirm the documentation page clearly covers the upgrade path.
