Details

After a very important discussion, that took priority over everything else, we have decided use the term "website" over "web site" where applicable in the knowledge base. :-)

The style guide will need to be updated.

Only exceptions are when referring to labels in the Firefox UI.

We COULD do a blanket replace but that's probably not a good idea.  And I probably should have sorted that list... oh well.
Style guide is done. I can take care of he admin pages and the contributor docs; but the rest is something good for the community to get involved.

I'll have to go through article names. There may already be translations with the same name as the en version, but with "website" as one word.

"About Firefox Support" was already done. I have updated the following admin/contributor pages:
Terms of Service
Other Firefox support
Providing forum support
How to contribute
Translating articles
Translating the interface
Knowledge Base Policies
Localizing Firefox Support

I have renamed and created redirects for:
Websites look wrong
Website colors are wrong
Websites say cookies are blocked
Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can
Websites or add-ons incorrectly report incompatible browser
No programs can load websites
Firefox never finishes loading certain websites

The only one I couldn't rename is "Error loading web sites" which already had a translation called "Error loading websites".
