 Replying to [comment:10 helen]:
 > First chunk of code probably needs to change `if ( 'category' ==
 $taxonomy )` to `is_taxonomy_hierarchical( $taxonomy )`.

 > The second sentence reads a little awkwardly to me. I'm also not sure
 about using the word "term", as to me it's a technical one, although I
 have no idea what the alternative could be. Is it used in help text
 elsewhere?

 Added 23447.3 to edit sentence structure to:

 >Assign a parent term to create a hierarchy. The term Jazz, for example,
 would be the parent of Bebop and Big Band.

 "Term" is how I always describe items within a taxonomy to users. There's
 not really any other adequate word to describe items within a taxonomy.
