Remove "sister sites" from strings.
Closed, ResolvedPublic1 Estimated Story Points

Description

Due to donor feedback, it's been decided to remove references to sister sites across all platforms (i.e fundraising emails, donate.wiki & more).

Is it possible to update strings containing sister sites in the Apps as well? Content team's instruction is

We can replace sister sites with and other free knowledge projects where needed/appropriate.

Some strings I've located are:

Android

iOS

It's possible that there are more of course!

For localization, we can update these strings on translatewiki as international campaigns get closer to launch. As part of campaign preparation, I @ppenloglou
will make appropriate updates on translatewiki.

Test notes:

The sister sites phrasing used to be visible when clicking already donated on a banner, you'd see a toast. Now it should read "Thank you, dear donor! Your generosity helps keep Wikipedia and its and other free knowledge projects thriving."
