--- Comment #15 from Matthew Flaschen <[email protected]> ---
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/59806/ (already merged) is related to this. 
It removes "passwordreset-pretext" and splits "passwordreset-text" into
"passwordreset-text-one" ("Complete this form to reset your password", for when
there's only one field) and "passwordreset-text-many" ("Enter one of the pieces
of data to reset your password.", for when there's multiple fields).

I think that's helpful, but there's still room for improvement.  "Enter one of
the pieces of data" sounds a bit clinical, and it would be nice to explain how
the routes actually work (i.e. I changed English Wikipedia to say "If you are
certain of your email, but not your username, only enter your email.", to avoid
it failing because people enter both the wrong user name and the right email).

Special cases for the various route combinations (i.e. "email + username" => a
specific message) are more work, but allow better messages.
