1196306 - Email Templates for Get Involved page

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(www.mozilla.org :: L10N, defect)

Description

[David Weir (satdav)]

Hello I am wondering if you can update all of the templates to the following http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/mozilla.com/trunk/locales/en-US/templates/mozorg/emails/

for en-gb locale

Comment 1

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

I don't understand the bug: en-GB is already using the same templates, I thought the request was to customize them

Double space between "unconventional" and "technologists"

Maybe "a" rather than "your", also no need to have a capital P for product.
Are there other places/files where we should be switching from Firefox to Mozilla product?

Urgh, change "write me back" to "write back to me" or something equally less americanised.

"Web Sites" rather than "Web Sites"

r- for the moment.

Regarding en-US: these files are not used anymore in en-US (they use a completely different system), only by localized versions of the page. They're currently used only as a reference to create localized autoresponders.
