[meta] Fix missing hyphens for prefixes - Words starting with "un"

I think the general idea with the "un-" prefix is to not use a hyphen unless it aids clarity or readability, such as when there's a potential for misreading or ambiguity. In most uses, none of these words should be hyphenated.

@deanbowles, well, that is part of the reasoning; however, words like these become words through a productive morphological process in which a word is constructed from a bound morpheme prefix or suffix (like "un-"), and then if it becomes a part of common parlance, ends up in the dictionary without a hyphen. For example, consider that teenager was spelled as teen-ager in the 50s.

So, we will retain the scope currently as proposed for words starting with un- that are not misspellings of other words and that are not in our dictionary. A few words may need to be replaced with other phrases instead.

I plan to work on this issue with a team of Novice contributors with @xjm mentoring. We anticipate working on this this week and next week as well.

Discussed this issue with @xjm, @allison-herodevs, @ashley_herodev. We went over the list of words starting with "un" that are currently in the dictionary. It seems like some issues should be handled in this scope as they need a hyphen, but some others might need separate child issues as they need more context or may need to be replaced with a different word. We will continue to work on this

Adding to #12, the IS has been updated with our initial thoughts.

I wanted to give an update that we are still working on this and should have a more substantial update next week

I think the remaining words are in code or user facing text.

@sanket.tale, Welcome to Drupal! Take care when creating forks, this is a meta issue that does not need an MR. I urge you to read the Contribution Guide → to help you find issues suited to your skills and interests.

Hi @quietone Just starting out and trying to learn how to contribute. Thank you!

please review my small contribute if i am wrong please guide me.
Thanks!!

@Chandansha, this is a "Plan" issue, which means we do not create merge requests against it. Instead, we make child issues for the individual tasks with different kinds of fixes according to our scope guidelines. Please don't create merge requests for a single word; furthermore, I would not recommend working on the child issues until we've fixed the plan for them. Thanks!

Removing novice tag because the list is reduced to the one that are a bit harder and require some research.
