Description Adolfo Jayme Barrientos 2015-01-07 13:21:11 UTC
Bold labels are being used in some dialogs to mark a single UI control, which is incorrect. These are meant to separate groups of controls only. This misuse leads to wasted space and confusing hierarchy.

removing skillHIG keyword. There is no such thing at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Easy_Hacks/lists/by_Required_Skill and having a "skill*" keyword makes the easyHack not even appear on that page even in "uncategorized".
