Comment (by flixos90):

 Replying to [comment:21 jeremyfelt]:
 > '''Network Administrator Email''' in `wp-admin/network/settings.php` is
 more of a notification email. It starts as the network administrator email
 when the network is first setup, but then can be changed without affecting
 the role of the network administrator. We should think of another term to
 use for this field. See #34293 - If we concentrate these efforts there, we
 can probably leave that out of the patch.

 I just left a comment on that ticket to get a discussion started. I think
 it makes sense to wait for that ticket to be merged until this one here
 will. This might mean it's not going to make it into 4.7, but I think the
 two should be handled together as they're so closely related.

 > I think we can remove the "''Network administrators can no longer be
 added on the Options screen....''" paragraph from the `wp-
 admin/network/settings.php` text. Happy to hear other thoughts on that
 change.

 I agree, we should probably open a ticket for that. I don't know when this
 was changed, but it's likely a long time ago so that this information is
 not relevant anymore.

 > * With the change to "Network administrators", can "''This screen is for
 Network Administrators to add new sites to the network.''" now read
 "''This screen is for Network Administrators to add new sites.''" so that
 "network" isn't used twice in the same sentence. Would that be clear
 enough?

 Yes that sounds strange, I agree we need to change it. I think the way you
 proposed is clear enough. This is something we can fix on this ticket. :)
