Per P6 in 2014 Nov. spec, the formatting of date in lock screen for Arabic is day of week, month, date.

 Test case has been added in moztrap:

Comment 4

[Augustin Trancart [:autra]]

If I'm not mistaken, the date format is defined in localization files.

Do we have specs for l10n and localization tests in moztrap? That would be entirely new to me.

Yes, locales are able to determine their date formats.
https://hg.mozilla.org/gaia-l10n/ar/file/7a4b4af9f24d/shared/date/date.properties#l197

I think lockscreen is using longDateFormat from system
https://hg.mozilla.org/gaia-l10n/ar/file/7a4b4af9f24d/apps/system/system.properties#l258

longDateFormat=%A, %B %e
(Full weekday name), (full month name) (day of the month as a decimal number)

If you think that's wrong for Arabic, you should move this to Mozilla Localizations::ar and discuss it with localizers.

Just to answer to comment 5: I confirm UX did cover specs for Arabic when the created the RTL UX specs for 2.2.

Rami: please remember to close the bug as resolved-fixed when you make a change in Pootle, so we can then verify the fix. This helps us in our triage. thanks!
Lancy: in cases like these, please therefore close the bug since you've verified the fix (since localizer says in comment 10 he fixed it).
Closing the bug as resolved fixed as per comment 10

Typically we use the WORKSFORME resolution when a bug goes away without a clear patch landing to fix it.
