Comment:

 In [changeset:"41289"]:
 {{{

 General: Improve terminology used when referring to installations of
 WordPress and its extensions.

 "Install" is not a noun, and while it might be acceptable to use the verb
 as a noun, it is not correct. Using the correct
 noun, "installation", increases clarity, especially for non-native English
 speakers.

 This change fixes the usage in user-facing text and in developer
 documentation.

 Fixes #41620
