"Republishing opens the publish screen and you need to tell
it to find the new keyword you just assigned, so press
the Update Keys button. Then you will see your new
keyword(s) listed in the keywords field of the publish
screen, and then press Publish."

Does anyone else see something wrong with that paragraph or am I just
being picky?

Umm ... was that paragraph actually written by someone calling
themselves a technical writer? This link has been posted on this page
before, but I urge you to submit that paragraph to:

It's a bad technical writing contest. I think you have a winner here!
