Trivial changes like typos do not require a JIRA issue. Your pull request should address just this issue, without pulling in other changes. - [ ] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line and body. - [ ] Format the pull request title like `[MNG-XXX] SUMMARY`, where you replace `MNG-XXX` and `SUMMARY` with the appropriate JIRA issue. - [ ] Also format the first line of the commit message like `[MNG-XXX] SUMMARY`. Best practice is to use the JIRA issue title in both the pull request title and in the first line of the commit message. - [ ] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand what the pull request does, how, and why. - [ ] Run `mvn clean verify` to make sure basic checks pass. A more thorough check will be performed on your pull request automatically. - [ ] You have run the [Core IT][core-its] successfully.

Even when we teach them to read, and > they finally see a link, it's quite frustrating for them that they still > don't know what happened. > {{MojoExecutionException}} and {{MojoFailureException}} should never refer to > a wikipage anymore. > Plugin writers should get more control over the message written to the > console. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
