What did you do? ================ As part of bug 1307789, enabling Kabyle (kab), I found some issues with our localization process and documentation. https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/pull/4058#discussion_r90272535 What happened? ============== The change included an update to jinja2/includes/translate_locales.html and localizable strings What should have happened? ========================== "Kabyle" should have been marked as a localizable string when it was enabled as a localizable language Is there anything else we should know? ====================================== There should be a setting for locales that are enabled for UI localization, but not yet for page localization, to better match the process refined in 2016: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/Contribute/Localize/Starting_a_localization
Commits pushed to master at https://github.com/mozilla/kuma https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/commit/b68f5fb1c6179097f4dd223c8c285c52d2bbd890 bug 1321352: Add candidate languages Update documentation to reflect the new process for adding a new locale. First, the locale is enabled for translation of UI strings in Pontoon, and second it is enabled as a possible language for wiki translations. https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/commit/cd9b89f8c5f3dc6eb231dcc70b5cb06d89f29d10 Merge pull request #4061 from jwhitlock/l10n_process_1321352 bug 1321352: Add candidate languages
New process is documented at https://kuma.readthedocs.io/en/latest/localization.html, and new setting CANDIDATE_LANGUAGES to allow candidate languages to be localized without being enabled for wiki pages.
