Problem/Motivation

The current wording is confusing and too long. The proposed solution offers a shortened and clearer text.

Current:
Optionally specify an alternative URL by which this content can be accessed. For example, type "about" when writing an about page. Use a relative path and don't add a trailing slash or the URL alias won't work.

Proposed resolution

Proposed:
The alternative URL for this content. For example, type "about" when creating an about page. Use a relative path without a trailing slash

Remaining tasks

Need a patch with the text change.

User interface changes

The description text for the URL alias field under URL path settings when adding new content.

API changes

None.

Data model changes

None.

I've been able to reproduce the issue. You can find it by going to: Content->Add content->Choose a content type->Scroll down to "URL path settings". The text is a description for the alias field. Attached screenshot below.
