Hello again, a minor edit:

For How do I submit a blog post with a technical focus? the guidance should
be:

> After the migration is done: The process remains the same. For WMF staff,
> talk to your manager about your interest in writing a blog post so they are
> not surprised when you ask them to approve it once it is written. For folks
> outside WMF, if you are part of a team or other larger organization, be
> sure they are aware and approve.


Apologies for any confusion. Thank you!
