Steps to reproduce:

Stay on page / Leave page are too long.



Expected results:

"Stay" / "Leave" could/should be enough.
Can you please explain your bug report a little better and add a screenshot and an URL ?

It's probably about onbeforeunload.

Component: DOM: Events → Translation

But I think the current wording is clear and not too long.
It's probably because I read "Leave page alone"-ish which means for me "stay on this page".

If I had only "Stay" and "Leave" or "Quit" it could be really clearer. (for me).
Definitely not a bug of the page translation feature. The current wording also seems clear to me.

Okay. Sorry for my bad english so. ;)

You can close the issue if you want.
I expected to see some long or unclear string in a translation (not en-us) and that is the reason why I requested the screenshot.

"Stay on page" is IMO not too long and clearer than "Stay". Many people (including me) will read the button text first and I know what the dialog wants from me if I only read the button text.

The right component for this is AFAIK the component that implemented the feature because this affects en-us.
For example the text in the network error messages live in Core:Networking

moving back to DOM Events to either accept a string change or to mark it wontfix

(This is really not a DOM: Events issue. There is just some code which uses DOMEvents and then triggers default action, which is to show the prompt.)

Thanks for the suggestion, but I agree with others here that this is clear as-is and not worth changing.
No problem. Thank you anyway for explaining me your points of view.
