Comment:
[19507] changed "within these administration screens" to "within the
dashboard"; however,
- [https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/administration-screens/
HelpHub's article] uses the term "Administration Screen" and
- [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/63048#comment:6 Ticket 63048]
avoided "dashboard" in favor of "administration" when referring to
administration color schemes.
I am not sure "backend editor" would help.
- I did not find "backend" (or "back end" or "back-end") in any user-
facing strings.
- The post editor technically can be added on the front end.
Something like "the interface you use when adding and editing posts" could
describe the post editor (I pulled that from the first two sentences in
the [https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/settings-writing-screen/
Writing Settings article]).
Other parts of the string could be edited, too.
- Both Post via Email and Update Services can be removed via filter.
Without either of those displaying, "top section" and "the rest" would not
fit.
- When real-time collaboration has an opt-in setting (#64904), the help
text might mention that.
