Changes (by johnbillion):

 * keywords:  has-patch => has-patch needs-refresh


Comment:

 I think we should take the opportunity to improve the phrasing of these
 instructions.

 * References to `ctrl+A` should be removed (re-phrase to simply say
 something along the lines of "select all")
 * The use of `we` and `us` is bizarre. Let's re-word the affected
 sentences to remove the need to reference the little people who live
 inside WordPress.
