Broken: version: 2.92.0 Release Candidate, branch: master, commit date: 2021-02-19 18:02, hash:
blender/blender@b1142858d4
Worked: 2.79 latest release
Short description of error
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.92/modeling/modifiers/modify/uv_project.html
Documentation links to the following file: https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/File:Uvproject.blend
This file seems to not work in any Blender version after 2.79 any more.
The usage for the UV projection modifier seems to have changed heavily since Blender 2.79:

The explanation: "Usually, an Image Texture node mapped to the UV map that the modifier targets is added to the object’s material."
is rather nondescriptive in how the modifier and shader needs to be set up.

@Vyach you expressed interest in trying to contribute to the manual.
Do you think this task is something you could do?
Yes, at least I want to try.
I am familiar with html/css/bbcode and other light coding, so I hope I will figure out, how our manual works.
The guides at https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/about/index.html are easy to follow, don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions.
This file appears to be on a wiki and not in the svn.
Here's one that works for blender280 an up Uvproject28+.blend
