    "请保持联系" was rejected but I think it's ok on it's own without the 请

      btw my understanding is that Chinese don't use 请 nearly as much as we use "please" in English, plus please was never in the original English of this translation

        "保持联系吧" - 请 not needed and 吧 is a particle that can be used for suggestion

        It can also be used not as a suggestion, but as it is for this translation.
