Replace "Sticky at top of lists" with a more meaningful equivalent

Try to create a new story, expand "publishing options". You will see an option "Sticky at top of lists". This is a quite unclear description, especially if you never participated in an bulletin board or have never used Drupal before.

The suggestion made at [1] is to replace it with an more meaningful equivalent: "Sticky (stays at top of content lists).". Even if you've never used Drupal before you know directly where it will be shown (at the top of the lists) and it'll stay there until you choose a different option.

Don't hurry, I'll try to fix this problem (should be just a small description to change?) on my own (want to learn something ;-) )

  • Usability

    Makes Drupal easier to use. Preferred over UX, D7UX, etc.

  • Needs usability review

    Used to alert the usability topic maintainer(s) that an issue significantly affects (or has the potential to affect) the usability of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. When adding this tag, make it easy to review the issue. Make sure the issue summary describes the problem and the proposed solution. Screenshots usually help a lot! To get sign-off on issues with the "Needs usability review" tag, post about them in the #ux channel on Drupal Slack, and/or attend a UX meeting to demo the patch and get direct feedback from designers/UX folks/product management on next steps. If an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the general "user experience" of Drupal, use Needs product manager review instead. See the scope of responsibilities for product managers.

    This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request as a guide.

    After so long this seems more like a feature request.

    Tagging for usability review for the text change.
    Also could use screenshots of the before and after

    It seems like many websites use the idea of "pin" as mentioned previously, I'm +1 on renaming it "Pin to top of lists" or similar.
