[Translators-l] test the editor survey

Hi,
I am not sure whether Limesurvey has a separate formal and informal
translation for Hungarian, but currently the questions are informal while
the interface is formal, which is a bit of a clash.

As for the questions, can we put a link to Special:Preferences for the
question on when did you join and how many edits do you have? (Not everyone
knows by heart their editcount, and the main page of the preferences happens
to state that information.)

I personally would not make the "do you have children" question compulsory
if the "are you married" one is already optional.
In the case of the "are you married" question, I feel that the "no answer"
option is unnecessary, given that the question is optional. On the other
hand, I would add a "no answer" option to the gender question which is
compulsory.

Best regards,
Bence
