425685 - [fy-NL] Update Wikipedia searchplugin to match title and overall structure

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: fy-NL / Frisian, defect)

Description

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

Wikipedia changed their site to say (ab-CD), mind creating a patch to reflect that?

You can find the exact title by going to http://fy.wikipedia.org/, view source, find the rel="search" link and pick its title.

"Wikipedia - Frysk" should be "Wikipedy (fy)" according to my latest check.

Could we get a general overhaul for this plugin, even? Up to the ShortName (which needs to be fixed for en-US, too), it should look very close to http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/browser/locales/en-US/searchplugins/wikipedia.xml?raw=1, both in terms of structure, and icon, and suggest url.

So users would load their Firefox, click on the searchengines and see Wikipedy (fy). How userfriendly is that? Can't we just put a normal name into that, like "Wikipedy - Frysk", or is this a legal issue?

As long as the ShortName doesn't match the title in that link, Firefox will continue to advertise that there is a new plugin.

The other half of the problem is that the ShortName is bound to some limited length per spec, which is why wikipedia moved over to language codes instead of names.

r=me, please check this in with a comment referring to this bug and my review, something like "bug 425685, update wikipedia plugin to match site and mozilla style, r=[e-mail]" would do.
