-The next step is to get the patch actually checked in to our repository. For
-more information about how to make that happen, check out this post:
+Once the patch is correctly formatted and all the nits are addressed,
+you should ask the person who reviewed your patch to push it to the
+try server for testing.

+Once it comes back passing all our tests, your patch will be ready
+to check in!  To get your patch checked in you can add "checkin-needed"
+to the Keywords field on the bug summary page, and one of our helpful
+Code Sheriffs will come by to merge it into the Mozilla codebase.
 
-While you are going through those final steps, if you're looking for a new
-project to take on, have a look at our list of 'mentored' [% terms.bugs %] ([% terms.bugs %] where
-someone is specifically available to help you):

-If you haven't done so already, this is also a good time to sign up to the
-Mozilla Contributor Directory and create a profile for yourself. Doing this
-will give you access to community members' profiles so you can reach out and
-connect with other Mozillians. You will need someone to 'vouch for' your
-profile; if you don't know any other Mozillians well, why not contact the
-person who approved your patch?
+While that's underway, we'd be happy to work with you on something
+new; you can take a look at our list of Good First [% terms.bugs %],
+where someone who knows the code can help you get started:
 
-The directory is here:

+like to look at next. As well, you can join us on IRC (irc.mozilla.org)
+in the #introduction channel, to ask for suggestions for yourself
+or help new contributors find their feet.
+
+For first time contributors this is also a good time to sign up to
+the Mozilla Contributor Directory! This will give you access to
+other community members' profiles, so you can connect with other
+Mozillians in your city, region or country.
