Bug ID: 45461
Summary: Use 'email instead of 'e-mail' for English messages
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.21-git
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Interface

My observation is that 'email' is now a lot more common than 'e-mail' online,
and Wikipedia corroborates this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email#Spelling).
I think this will make people feel just a little more comfortable, so I propose
changing our standard to be 'email'.
I don't think this is an American/British issue, since the Oxford dictionaries
have 'email' canonical too according to
http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/email
