AI is about knowledge

@divydovy

Wisdom Revert the site back to pre-Akismet update and notify the site administrator there’s been a problem

Understanding There was a problem updating Akismet because it triggered a fatal PHP error

Knowledge An update process was started for akismet and triggered a fatal PHP error

Information akismet is a plugin, update started is an action, fatal error is a PHP error

Data “akismet”, “update started”, “fatal error”
