Problem/Motivation

When creating a new content type, the default value for the "Promoted to front page" checkbox should be FALSE.

Beta phase evaluation

<!--Uncomment the relevant rows for the issue. -->

So this normal task is allowed in the drupal 8 beta since it is a prioritized usability improvement with no/very little disruption.

Proposed resolution

Write patch to Drupal 8 to change this behavior for new version of Drupal

Remaining tasks

Most recent patch failed testing, need to be fixed and resubmitted

<!-- See https://drupal.org/core-mentoring/novice-tasks for tips on identifying novice tasks. Delete or add "Novice" from the Novice? column in the table below as appropriate. Uncomment tasks as the issue advances. Update the Complete? column to indicate when they are done, and maybe reference the comment number where they were done. -->
