Shubham Padia 7ce87c66ac help: Make loose lists tight for help center files.
In our current implementation, loose lists and tight lists look the same
visually. Loose lists are lists with blank lines between list items, and
the contents of a list item should be enclosed in a paragraph tag in
that case. For unordered lists, paragraph tags have a bottom margin in
starlight and thus looses lists look much more spaced out than tight
lists.

That is not the behaviour we had in mind while writing the
documentation, the reason we had all these loose lists is to make the
documentation easy to write and read. So we attempt to remove all the
blank lines and fix the problem at source. Since paragraph tags are used
for other purposes in a list in starlight, it won't be a wise decision
to let the source be as is and just change things in css, other expected
behaviours might break in that case. See this topic for more details:
https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/channel/19-documentation/topic/new.20help.20center.3A.20regressions/near/2226084

All the changes were made by a one-off script which has not been
commited to the repo. The script wasn't perfect and could not decide
between blank lines that make a list loose vs blank lines necessary for
a sub-list or a code block inside a list item. A manual review of all
the changes was done before making this commit to ensure that no
unintended changes were made to the help center files.

Organization language for automated messages and invitation emails

{!admin-only.md!}

{!translation-project-info.md!}

Each user can use Zulip with their preferred language. Additionally, if your organization has a primary language other than American English, you can set the language used for the organization's automated messages and invitation emails. This setting:

  • Determines the language used for automated notices that are sent to channels, including both the topic name and message content. (Automated messages sent to a single user will use that user's preferred language).
  • Determines the language used for outgoing invitation emails.
  • Is used as the default language for new user accounts when Zulip cannot detect their language preferences from their browser, including all users created via the Zulip API.
