Fix typos, sentence structure, links

Ghost User requested to merge (removed):patch-447 into master

Fixed some minor stuff (spelling, typos, sentence structures, ...).

The Hangouts on air section (starting line 245) needs to be rewritten. It's more like a bug report. Should I open an issue for that?

### Hangouts on air

Hangouts on Air probably only works with a maximum of 15 people for scheduled calls (same limit as normal Google Hangouts).

Potential problem: even when I logged in as GitLab and got the bar below the call, I could not switch it to on-air!
I did notice that the time was not properly set (anymore?).
I did a test event before and that seemed to work OK.
I'll try one more time to see if it works.

Potential problem 2: the video showed up as listed by default

Go to [My live events on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/my_live_events) and switch to the GitLab account on the top right (you need to be a manager of our YouTube channel).

Go to => life streaming => events and create a new one with the attributes:

- type => quick (using Google Hangouts on Air)
- advanced: promotions: disable both checkboxes
- time needs to be set correctly

The view on watch page URL only allows for people to watch it.
Window that pops up when you press the start hangout on air button has the proper URL that you can send to other people and/or add it to the calendar invite, it is structured like: https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/ytl/LONGHASH.
When people join the event they have to [accept a warning](https://gitlab.com/snippets/16245).

[Completed live events](https://www.youtube.com/my_live_events?filter=completed) will show the video and you can click the image to view it.
You can use actions to make it public here

BTW Trying to set this up via Google+ via [Hangouts on Air](https://support.google.com/plus/answer/7126353?hl=en) instead of via YouTube doesn't seem to connect to the right YouTube channel, even if you selected the right account on the top right.
