Issues and merge requests should be in English and contain appropriate language
for audiences of all ages.
+If a contributor is no longer actively working on a submitted merge request
+we can decide that the merge request will be finished by one of our
+[Merge request coaches][team] or close the merge request. We make this decision
+based on how important the change is for our product vision. If a Merge request
+coach is going to finish the merge request we assign the
