Comment (by Hanni):

 I worry that part of the text has lost its friendly tone:

                 It is very important to keep your WordPress installation
 up to date for security reasons, so when you see a number appear, make
 sure you take the time to update, which is an easy process.

 has become

        It is very important to keep your WordPress installation up to date
 for security reasons. WordPress has the ability to apply maintenance and
 security releases automatically. You'll still need to click "Update Now"
 when a new major version has been released.

 Additionally, it's telling the user about the "Update Now" button in the
 "Overview" tab, before doing so more logically in the "How to Update" tab,
 so, perhaps we can rephrase this. Arguably the previous text "so when you
 see a number appear, make sure you take the time to update, which is an
 easy process." still applies in this first section of the tab, no?
