-  Adds a new system status check "Missing Phone numeric check" instead of
-  checking when crudding phone numbers.
+  CiviCRM relies on a MySQL function to generate a numeric-only version of phone
+  numbers.  This change adds a system check to ensure the function exists
+  instead of checking for the function each time a phone number is added or
+  edited.
+

+
+- **Replace extension key with description in 'Add New' tab
+  ([20720](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20720))**
+
+  Improves the "Extensions" -> "Add New" form user experience by displaying the
+  description below the extension name instead of the extension key.
+
+- **User experience improvement - Remove the confusing mixed terminology used to
+  describe Tags: "Tags (Categories)" and "Tag (Category)"
+  ([20268](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20268))**
+
+  Improves user experience by removing the term "Category" when referencing
+  tags.
+
+- **Improve output triggers when logged to file
+  ([20472](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20472))**
+
+  Improves output triggers when logged to a file by adding an asort, putting all
+  the triggers into an array keyed by the statement and opening and closing the
+  delimiters just once.
+
+- **Show smarty E-notices when in debug mode
+  ([20640](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20640))**
+
+  Improves the user experience in debug mode by showing php notices (e.g.
