Hi @sarvarshaikh,

Can you detail the reasoning behind your recommendation to remove the period from the end of the sentence? Looking through the Add New and Edit User screens, it looks like the period is more consistently included than not.

Having looked at that, I lean towards leaving the . on that screen and adding it where it's missing on Edit User.

I'm going to tag this for Design/UI feedback in case there have been changes elsewhere in Core towards either option.

Adds periods to the end of labels on user edit screens for consistency.

I've opened a PR that adds periods to the fields on the user edit screen, so everything is consistent.

From my point of view, I think dot (.) should be removed from the checkbox label. Checkbox label has no dots on other User sub menus as well as Settings sub menus.

Text which has dot (.) at the end are more likely short description of the field.

@SergeyBiryukov can you please share your opinion here so that we can move forward with this ticket.

Thank you.

Hi All,
From what I can tell about this ticket, it looks like we the labels do seem to follow a structure. All field labels have a dot (.) at the end of the sentence, where as checkboxes do not, unless they are followed by a link. Even in the latest release compared to the versions 5.1-5.3, which were available at the time this ticket was opened, this seems to be the same. I personally believe as this ticket is still relevant in the latest release that an ongoing conversation may be had here, but also seeing as this ticket has only had sporadic messages in the last 6 years it makes sense to close this ticket. Of course if there is any movement on this we can reopen the ticket too.
