FYI, on my native language (Indonesian), we say "Review yourself" as "Tinjau dirimu" for imperative mood. Unfortunately many imperative sentences on software l10n instead prefix the verb with "me-", such as "meninjau dirimu". That is not imperative mood; that is descriptive mood with infinitive verb form. Anyway, thanks.

Thanks, will queue. ```
