      The Bug:

      The word "Wi-Fi" is spelled as "WiFi" within a launcher string used to compare game features.

      This is a valid issue because Microsoft considers usages other than "Wi-Fi" to be incorrect. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/w/wi-fi

      Wi-Fi is a proper noun and a registered trademark. Capitalize and hyphenate when referring specifically to Wi-Fi technologies. Don’t use WiFi, wifi, or Wifi.

      Below is a table I've constructed that highlights this error. You can find information about what the current and expected string is and would be, some context regarding it, and a link to the appropriate string on crowdin.

      Affected String:

      Before reading the table, please note the following:

      • Words colored in GREEN are correct.
      • Words colored in RED are incorrect.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      • Locate the affected string as listed above.
      • Take note as to whether or not the word "Wi-Fi" is spelled as "WiFi" within a launcher string used to compare game features.

      Observed Behavior:

      The word "WiFi" would be spelled as "Wi-Fi".
