Comment (by Kenshino):

 Can do. And sounds like a good task for Helphub.

 Quick thoughts on the text, our users may not have English as their first
 language. Words like entropy should be avoided. The simpler the language,
 the better.

 We might want to explain that it's the bots that are guessing passwords,
 so they understand why ilovefootball1991 isn't a safe password.


 @milana_cap any thoughts? :)
